Compare New Hampshire RatesNew Hampshire minimum coverage: 25/50/25
New Hampshire does not mandate insurance for most drivers, but financial-responsibility rules still set the floor when coverage is bought or required:
- $25,000 bodily injury per person
- $50,000 bodily injury per accident
- $25,000 property damage per accident
Minimum coverage keeps you legal, not necessarily solvent: the average new truck costs more than $25,000 to replace, so one at-fault accident can outrun your property-damage limit.
Insurance OPTIONAL: no mandate to buy; drivers who do buy (or must show financial responsibility, e.g. after DUI) need 25/50/25 plus UM and MedPay.
Minimums cross-checked against Insurance Information Institute and state DOI sources, July 2026; see our methodology. Rules change; verify current minimums with your state's Department of Insurance.
