New Hampshire Driver's License Reinstatement
Most people have more than one reason their New Hampshire license is on hold and don't know it. This page walks the common reasons, what each requires per New Hampshire's published process, and the order the state expects them in. The roadmap itself is free.

Common Reasons a New Hampshire License Is Suspended
Each reason has its own requirements, fee, and order in the state's process. If more than one applies to you, they have to be cleared in the right sequence. That's what the free roadmap does.
Type A1
Lapse in insurance / SR-22 required
If your insurance lapsed, the state suspends your driving privileges until you re-establish coverage and (in most states) file an SR-22 financial-responsibility certificate.
What New Hampshire requires: obtain coverage; SR-22 3 yr; pay restoration.
State reinstatement fee: $100 (paid directly to NH DMV)
Type A2
Failure to appear or failure to pay a ticket
If you missed a court date or didn't resolve a citation, the court notifies the state and your license is held until the underlying matter is cleared with the court.
What New Hampshire requires: resolve underlying; out-of-state convictions / court defaults can trigger NH susp → resolve → pay restoration.
State reinstatement fee: $50 to $100 (paid directly to NH DMV)
Type A3
Points / accumulated violations
Multiple moving violations within the state's lookback window can trigger a points-based suspension that requires waiting out the suspension period and clearing reinstatement requirements.
What New Hampshire requires: point bands trigger 3 mo - 1 yr susp; serve → pay.
State reinstatement fee: $50 to $100 (paid directly to NH DMV)
Type B-DUI-ADMIN
DUI administrative suspension
An administrative-license-revocation suspension (separate from any criminal court case) is handled through the state's reinstatement process. The criminal case itself is for an attorney, not for us.
What New Hampshire requires: DUI/DWI 9 mo - 2 yr (1st, reducible to 90 d via IDCMP) / refusal; SR-22 3 yr; IID; IDCMP (Impaired Driver Care Management Program); ALS hearing 30-day window; uninsured-accident 10-day window; Temporary Limited Privilege Driver License (w/ IID).

Or have us prepare the packet
Packet preparation isn't live for New Hampshire yet. The free roadmap is still available now. We'll surface the prepared packet here when it opens.
Every requirement, fee, and link on this page comes from New Hampshire's own published process. Where New Hampshire hasn't published a value at primary source, we leave it out rather than guess. The free roadmap carries the citations behind each step. Requirements can change; always confirm current requirements with the state before submitting.

Common questions
Yes. The roadmap is free and shows the administrative steps, official links, and sourced requirements we can identify from the information you give us. Packet preparation appears later only if it adds value for your path.
No. New Hampshire decides whether your license is reinstated. We are a private self-help document-preparation service, not a DMV, court, or law firm. You submit the packet yourself and pay state, court, insurance, or provider fees directly.
In supported launch states, the paid packet includes eligible official forms filled from the information you provide when a safe mapping exists, plus filing sequence, readiness checklist, proof tracker, and state-specific submission instructions.
