Conservation Plates

The revenues from the sale of the conservation plates directly benefit existing state conservation, wildlife and historic preservation programs and will be used to conserve land, restore historic building, plant wildflowers, and implement local resource conservation plans and survey rate plants and animals.  The Conservation "Moose" plate can be obtained at the Town Clerk's office and the fee is $30.00 yearly.

NH State Title Law

New Hampshire no longer has a 15-year title law. Vehicles with a model year of 2000 or newer are required to be titled forever.  Without a title, a registration cannot be obtained.

Exempt Vehicles — 1999 model year or older motor vehicle cannot be registered unless one of the following documents is presented in addition to the Bill of Sale normally presented:

  • Previously issued or expired NH registration (a copy of the previous registration is acceptable)
  • Valid NH or out-of-state title (a copy is acceptable)
  • Verification of VIN (Form TDMV19A) (available at the Town Offices or on-line at the State of NH DMV web pages)
