This bill establishes a new 5-year fleet vehicle registration program within the division of motor vehicles specifically for fleets consisting of 25 or more in-service vehicles. The program allows qualified registrants to select a common expiration date for all vehicles in their fleet, with registration credentials issued for a five-year period. Registrants must submit a current New Hampshire certificate of good standing to enroll and maintain their status throughout the registration period. If a registrant fails to meet the criteria, such as maintaining the required number of vehicles, their fleet registration will be terminated, reverting their vehicles to non-fleet status. Additionally, off-highway recreational vehicles and snowmobiles are excluded from this registration program.

The bill also outlines the administrative procedures for the program, including the collection of fees for both state and municipal portions, which will be calculated and collected for the entire five-year period. The division of motor vehicles is tasked with disbursing the municipal fees within 30 days of receipt. The bill mandates that the director of the division adopt rules for enrollment, cancellation, and other necessary administrative matters. The effective date for this act is set for January 1, 2026, and while it does not provide funding, it anticipates a one-time expenditure of $25,000 in FY 2026 for system changes related to the implementation of the program.
