The New Hampshire Department of Safety states that an SR-22 is a certificate of “proof of liability insurance” which must be submitted by an insurance carrier licensed to do business in NH. The SR22 auto insurance is for liability coverage.
The SR-22 is a certificate that confirms you are complying with the financial responsibility laws of NH. Usually it is required in situation where you have had an accident with no car insurance or as a result of a serious traffic infraction. The certificate must be filed with the Department of Motor Vehicle by your present insurance provider. If the policy is ever terminated on non-renewed, the insurer must notify the DMV.
To get more information on financial responsibility requirements you may contact the New Hampshire Division of Motor Vehicles.
