I finally got my NH non-resident permit in the mail yesterday I had sent it in for renewal in Apr I called in July because I hadn't gotten it and the very nice young lady at the state police said they were way behind and the price had gone from $20.00 to $100.00 I asked if I needed to send her the other $80. she said no the price had gone up in Jun so I was covered till next time all in all very nice prople to deal with

From $20 to $100? Yeesh that's quite a rate hike.
It's amazing how that happens. They jack up the prices on things like CWP permits because they know the law-abiding citizens who are seeking one will pay whatever fees or taxes the law requires rather than going after all the tax evaders that are getting a free pass. I can't say I'm surprised.

I'm thinking they are going to get a lot less business.

Got mine just in time :-)

That is a steep jump!

I filed mine on April 20, so I should be receiving it soon. It is a steep price hike from $20 to $100, but that is the supply and demand thing at work. If you don't like the price, keep shopping I guess. Pennslyvania's non resident permit is still $26.00.

I don't see it quite that way, considering that NH did not raise the fee for a resident permit.Originally Posted by gdm320
I think they saw it simply as a way to increase permit revenue without causing a stink amongst NH tax payers. Let the non-residents foot the total bill for the increase instead of splitting it between them and the locals.
It may be semantics, but I see a difference.

If they didn't raise the price for residence that's great. I'm sorry to say that when mine expires I won't be renwing because of their price increase, I'll look into Florida or Utah when that happens. The price is comparible but those have many more states than NH anyway.I don't see it quite that way, considering that NH did not raise the fee for a resident permit.

Ditto. I originally got the NH permit for a trip to Wyoming and it was quick, easy and economical. It's still easy, quicker than most but no longer economical and now that I have a Utah permit, the only state it ads for me is NH itself which, especially since I'd have to travel through NY to get to NH, I never plan to visit so I'll not be renewing my NH permit either.

All the more reason to be lobbying for a reciprocity universal agreement; resident/non-resident permits recognized by all statesI don't see it quite that way, considering that NH did not raise the fee for a resident permit.

I and many others will not go back to NH for the non resident ccw permit.
$100 is way to high for a pittance of a CCW permit. They are killing their cash cow.

I got mine just recently, before the fee went up. You can kind of expect it due to the increase in applications, but to jump $80 at one whack is kind of hard to handle. The only reason I did is to be able to carry in Georgia when I go to Florida in September. Georgia doesn't recognize West Virginia and vice versa. They will, however recognize a NH Non-Res. permit. Mine is good now for 5 years, and at the end of that time, I may or may not renew it, depending upon the circumstances. WV could get reciprocity with other states that don't currently honor us.
