Recalled equipment: what Hawaii requires
The requirement
Materials shall be safe and kept in good repair, not be recalled, and shall be accessible to children.
What kind of duty this is
A standing prohibition. Your state says you may not have recalled items on the premises. It does not require you to run a check on a schedule, and there is no state form.
Your state prescribes no recall form. Anything we generate for you is a convenience record for your own files — it is not a state form, and we will not pretend otherwise.

Worth knowing
The broadest scope of any state without paperwork: it covers ALL materials and equipment, not just cribs, across all four licensed and registered categories, and Hawaii formally DEFINES “recalled” against the CPSC. Family child care homes carry an extra affirmative duty — “ensuring that materials and equipment have not been recalled”. That affirmative clause exists only for homes; for centres the duty is phrased as a prohibition, so do not claim centres must periodically check. The chapters were renumbered and the state’s own licensing-standards page still prints the old numbers.
This page summarises publicly available licensing rules. It is not legal advice, and rules change. Always verify against your state’s current licensing authority.
