Shuttle

You do not need a CDL if you drive a shuttle bus or van that carries 15 passengers or less, including the driver.

Taxi

Taxi driver license requirements are governed by each municipality. Check with your local city or town clerk for specifics.

Chauffeur

New Hampshire does not require a chauffeur license.

Sport Vehicles

Again, check with your local municipality for information regarding snowmobiles, ATVs and other recreational vehicles.

Boats, however, do require registration and proper training. Check this handbook for more information.
