New-resident deadlines
| State | Topic | Requirement |

| New Hampshire | Driver's license & vehicle registration | New residents have 60 days from establishing residency to both obtain a New Hampshire driver's license and register their vehicle(s) — the state combines both deadlines into a single 60-day window rather than setting them separately. |
