i Deadlines, fees, and what happens if you are late

When it is due
License anniversary: under RSA 310:8, II, "Licenses issued by the office shall be valid for 2 years from the date of issuance." The completed renewal application, fee, and supporting documents must be filed on or before the expiration of the license (RSA 310:8, III). OPLC must send renewal notice at least 2 months before expiration (RSA 310:8, IV), and the OPLC renewal page says licensees get an email renewal notification 90 days before expiration.
Fee
$413.00 (Physician/Administrative Physician renewal, per the OPLC Board of Medicine fee page; includes the mandatory $28.00 Professional Health Program fee). Compact Physician renewal is also $413.00.
If you miss the deadline
No grace period and no late-renewal window. Under RSA 310:8, III, if the completed renewal, fee, and documents are not filed by the expiration date the license expires and "the holders of an expired license are not authorized to practice until the licenses have been reinstated." Reinstatement fee for a physician is $413.00 ($378.00 for a Compact Physician) per the OPLC fee page. Expired licenses lapse one year from expiration; after that the holder cannot renew and must reinstate by submitting an application and meeting eligibility requirements in statute and board rules.

4 Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I renew my New Hampshire physician license, and when is it due? ▾
Every 2 years. Under RSA 310:8 your license is valid for 2 years from its date of issuance, and the completed renewal application, fee, and any supporting documents must be filed on or before the license expiration date. OPLC sends an email renewal notification 90 days before expiration and is required by statute to notify you at least 2 months before expiration.
How much does renewal cost? ▾
$413.00 for a Physician or Administrative Physician license (Compact Physician renewal is also $413.00), per the OPLC Board of Medicine fee page. This includes the mandatory $28.00 Professional Health Program (PHP) fee. Online payment accepts Mastercard, Visa, Discover, and American Express.
Where do I renew? ▾
Through the New Hampshire Online Licensing system at https://forms.nh.gov/license/Login.aspx, via the OPLC Customer Portal. First-time online renewers create an account using the registration code printed on their renewal notification; if you need a code, email CustomerSupport@oplc.nh.gov with your name, telephone number, and license number.
What happens if I miss my renewal deadline? ▾
Your license expires and you are not authorized to practice until it is reinstated; there is no grace period or late-renewal path (RSA 310:8, III). Physician reinstatement costs $413.00 ($378.00 for Compact Physicians). One year after expiration the license lapses, after which you cannot renew and must reinstate by submitting an application and meeting the eligibility requirements in statute and board rules.
Do I have to do anything besides the renewal application and fee? ▾
Yes. Physicians renewing an active-status license must complete the NH Physician Licensure Survey or the opt-out form through DHHS, required by RSA 126-A:5, XVIII-a (administrative and inactive licenses are exempt). Your CME (100 hours per 2-year cycle, at least 40 Category 1, plus 3 hours in pain management/addiction disorders for NH-DEA holders) is now tracked through CE Broker, which OPLC made mandatory for the Board of Medicine as of February 3, 2025.
I hold my NH license through the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact. Is my renewal different? ▾
The board posts a separate document, Important Information for Compact Physician License Renewals, linked from the Applications for Physician page, and the fee schedule lists Compact Physician as its own category (renewal $413.00, reinstatement $378.00). Review that document before renewing rather than assuming the standard path applies.
