Additional Notes
New Hampshire has a narrow registration requirement: ONLY telemarketers using an automatic telephone dialing system must register with the AG. Manual calling does not trigger registration. $20/year fee, no bond. Must register at least 10 days before using an autodialer. Despite the narrow registration trigger, NH has strong enforcement: $5,000 per violation, $1,000 private right of action (double the federal TCPA minimum), and treble damages for willful violations. Caller ID blocking is prohibited.
New Hampshire does not require separate individual salesperson registration. The autodialer registration covers the business entity. Individual callers must comply with all disclosure and conduct requirements under RSA 359-E.
Apply Before Your First Call
