That is correct, the phrase used in the code is
"a duly licensed architect or professional engineer in the State of Hawai‘i"
So can be anyone in licensed in the State of Hawaii..
I found this company in Oahu,, ( have not talked to him yet) but he has a lot of good info in his You Tube Videos.
Prowork Pacific Inc
https://www.proworkpacifichi.com/
seems to do a lot of high end work,, but he is also a third party permit reviewer for the Oahu building dept. So he should know the process well.
I also found stuff in the code that says if the estimated cost of the building is less thna $40,000, then you do not need stamped plans....
in that case a draftman could do them becasue they are not licensed..
a garage should cost less thna that...
here is one of the videos that explans difference form architect and draftsman.
