New Hampshire Eviction Notice

Before a landlord can file an eviction case in New Hampshire, the tenant must receive a written notice that states what is wrong and how long they have to fix it or move out. In New Hampshire, a landlord must generally give 7 days' notice to pay rent or quit under N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. 540:3, 540:9.

This template generates a New Hampshire eviction notice for nonpayment of rent, a lease violation, or the end of the tenancy. You set the notice period so the document matches the current New Hampshire requirement for your situation.
