How to Restore Your New Hampshire License After a No-Insurance Suspension
The short answer
These are the steps the New Hampshire agency lists to restore a license after a suspension for no insurance. The state's reinstatement fee is $100. Whether an SR-22 is also required depends on your case.
Steps listed by the New Hampshire agency
- Contact an insurance carrier licensed in New Hampshire to file the uniform SR-22 certificate; privileges cannot be restored until the filing requirement is met.
- Pay the $100 License/Operating Privilege restoration fee (plus $25 Registration Privilege Restoration Fee if registration is suspended).
- Pay by calling the Credit Card Payment line at 1-800-272-0036, through the Concord DMV Drop Box (check payable to State of NH-DMV with a note, name and date of birth), or by appointment at the Concord DMV.
- After the filing period, ask the Bureau of Financial Responsibility to review your record for a Notice of Relief of Filing.
Check your status first
The state has no online status check that we found; its page lists how to ask by phone or in person.
Need to drive to work while suspended? The state offers a Limited driving privilege (RSA 263:57-b, court petition). Many states limit these licenses to certain suspensions, such as DUI cases, so check that it covers yours.
