**UPDATED 4/23/2020**

NH-DMV has made some changes in operations. Those most likely to impact WV folks are listed in BOLD below. There are presently no extensions being granted for renewals of registrations or vehicle inspections. The WV Town office is urging customers to use our online portal for vehicle registration renewals under the "pay bills" tab on the main page of the Town website. Additionally, the Town is encouraging use of the On-line Payment Portal for Motor Vehicle Renewals, Property Tax payments, Water/sewer payments, Dog License Renewals and Vital Records orders. Our on-line vendor has discounted the shopping card fees of $1.50 per cart by 50% through the date of May 4th, 2020, however this does not include the additional payment method fees, dependent upon your type of payment. The Town of Waterville Valley is offering to reimburse people who submit the request form during this State of Emergency for these additional fees. The form can be printed HERE.  The form can be printed and submitted by fax (603) 236-2056, or email to townofwv@watervillevalley.org
