Frequently Asked Questions

Can you tell me how much it costs to register a new vehicle?

You can get an estimate by clicking onto the ACCESS ONLINE SERVICES link above. (Remember to change your birth month)

What do I need to register a vehicle?

If the vehicle is 2000 and newer you need the title signed over to you on the back, with the exact mileage or blue Dealer Title Application.  If the vehicle is 1999 and older you need a bill of sale accompanied with the prior NH registration or VIN Verification Form. See description and sample of Bill of Sale below.

A proper Bill of Sale will be required for registration of all non-title motor vehicles.

The Bill of Sale shall be in a letter head receipt form from a bonded dealer, a letterhead bill of sale from a dealer, a previous registration from same owner (NH or previous state of residence) or a bill of sale from the seller. The following information will be required according to Rules and Regulations of the Dept. of Safety:

• Description of Vehicle:  Make, Model, Identification No., Model year, type of body, Number of Cylinders
