1. Can I get paper (temporary) plates at the town office?

No. Temporary plates are only available at a sub-station (Epping, Dover, etc.) You need to bring your New Hampshire license, and a bill of sale or a purchase and sales agreement and it must be done in person.

2. Can I register a car for my son, daughter, or other relative?

Generally, yes, but you must provide us with a notarized power of attorney and a copy of that individual's license to do so.

3. I sold my car. Can I get a rebate?

No, the State does not rebate any portion of the registration.

4. I'm buying a car in Massachusetts, how long can I use my New Hampshire plates before I register it?

It is against New Hampshire law to use the plates from any other vehicle until it is registered to that car. You may purchase a temporary plate from a sub-station.

5. Do I get a grace period after my registration runs out?

There is no grace period at all for renewing a vehicle.

6. What if I have more questions regarding vehicle registration?

It is impossible to define all the requirements or list a complete set of instructions. This is provided for your convenience only. If you have a question or concern that has not been addressed please call the office at 603-926-0406 or email the Town Clerk's office.
