Non-Owner SR-22 Insurance in New Hampshire
If New Hampshire has ordered you to file an SR-22 and you do not own a car, a non-owner SR-22 policy is usually the lowest-cost way to meet the requirement and reinstate your license. New Hampshire requires at least 25/50/25 liability coverage.
Who needs a non-owner SR-22 in New Hampshire?
New Hampshire drivers are commonly ordered to file an SR-22 after a DUI, after driving without insurance, after an uninsured accident, or after a license suspension for points or unpaid judgments. If you do not own a vehicle and have no regular access to one, a non-owner policy satisfies the New Hampshire DMV.
How to get a non-owner SR-22 in New Hampshire
- Confirm the requirement. Check your suspension notice or court paperwork, or call the New Hampshire DMV, to confirm that you need an SR-22, how long you need it, and any reinstatement fees.
- Request non-owner quotes. Tell the agent that you do not own a vehicle and do not have regular use of one. You must also list everyone in your household who owns a car, because household access can disqualify you.
- Buy the policy and pay the filing fee. The insurer files the SR-22 with New Hampshire electronically, usually within one business day.
- Pay reinstatement fees and keep the policy active. If the policy lapses, the insurer must notify the state, and your license can be suspended again.
