New Hampshire Non-Owner Liability Requirements

New Hampshire requires 25/50/25 liability coverage: $25,000 per person for bodily injury, $50,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage. The state also mandates personal injury protection (PIP) and uninsured motorist coverage. For drivers who need an SR-22 filing after a DWI, leaving the scene of an accident, or a second reckless operation conviction, New Hampshire requires the filing for 3 years—and a non-owner policy satisfies that requirement when you own no vehicle.

25/50 minimum
Bodily Injury Liability
Covers injury to others when you're at fault. A New Hampshire non-owner policy must carry at least $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. This is the core of what a non-owner policy provides: liability protection that follows you, not a car you own.
$25,000 minimum
Property Damage Liability
Pays for damage to another person's property when you're at fault. New Hampshire's $25,000 minimum applies to non-owner policies just as it does to standard auto policies. This coverage sits behind any policy on the car you're driving.
Required by state
Uninsured Motorist Coverage
New Hampshire mandates uninsured motorist coverage, which protects you when hit by a driver with no insurance. Non-owner policies include this coverage because 10% of New Hampshire motorists drive uninsured, and you need protection even when driving a borrowed or rented car.
Required by state
Personal Injury Protection (PIP)
New Hampshire requires PIP, which covers your medical expenses regardless of fault. A non-owner policy includes PIP for you as the driver, but it does not cover physical damage to the vehicle you're driving because you own no car to insure.
SR-22 required, 3 years
Non-Owner SR-22 Filing
New Hampshire requires an SR-22 filing for 3 years after a DWI, leaving the scene of an accident, or a second reckless operation conviction. If you own no car, a non-owner policy with an SR-22 satisfies the state's requirement. Carriers that write non-owner SR-22 in New Hampshire include Geico, Progressive, USAA, Farmers, National General, and The General.

What Shapes Non-Owner Costs in New Hampshire

Non-owner premiums in New Hampshire reflect your driving history, whether you need an SR-22 filing, and the liability limits you choose above the state minimum. The 3-year SR-22 filing period adds cost because it signals higher risk to carriers. Carriers that write non-owner policies in New Hampshire include Geico, Progressive, USAA, Farmers, Bristol West, National General, The General, and Travelers.

What Affects Your Rate

  • New Hampshire's 3-year SR-22 filing period for DWI and leaving the scene raises premiums for the full filing period.
  • The state's 25/50/25 liability minimum sets the floor for non-owner coverage, but higher limits increase cost.
  • New Hampshire's 10% uninsured motorist rate makes uninsured motorist coverage mandatory and adds to the premium.
  • Carriers that write non-owner SR-22 in New Hampshire are fewer than those writing standard non-owner, which limits competition and raises cost for the compliance segment.
  • Personal injury protection (PIP) is required by New Hampshire law and adds to the non-owner premium even though the policy covers no owned vehicle.
  • Driving history—especially DWI convictions and at-fault accidents—shapes non-owner cost more than vehicle factors because there is no car to rate.
