Overview

New Hampshire has a mini-TCPA under N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 359-E (Regulation of Automated Telephone Calls). The law requires prior consent before making automated calls or sending prerecorded messages to residential lines. NH maintains its own Do Not Call list through the AG's office. Telemarketers must register before soliciting NH consumers. Violations can result in penalties up to $10,000 per violation under the state Consumer Protection Act (RSA 358-A). Manual dialing to non-DNC numbers remains viable for cold outreach.
