Reply to comment by sndtech in How is it possible that there are NH plates out there with dark tinted front windows? by ThisIsNotTuna

That’s not what you think it is. That allows an EXTREMELY slight tint, anything that’s noticeably darker is illegal.

State law doesn't have a requirement for specific tint levels under a Medical Waiver. They're only good for two years. https://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rsa/html/XXI/266/266-61-a.htm

Ooooooh nice, it used to specify a max tint of something like 70%. It’s why I never bothered tinting. I wonder when that changed. Thanks for the info!

The front windows and windshield cannot be aftermarket tinted at all in NH. The rear windows have to be no more than 30% light diffusion.

That’s not true. 6” strip can be applied to the windshield. Non reflective of 35%. Front windows can also be tinted to 70 percent.

If that's true about the front windows then that's a huge change and it must have been made in the last 3 years. I was at inspection service stations for 30 years and you were never allowed to have front window tint in New Hampshire

a 70% tint looks clear to the naked eye. Most vehicles come stock from the factory with a minimum of 70%. It blocks UV.

That is not correct. 70% diffusion is WAY off.

70% is pretty clear.

Unless it's labeled oddly and it's a 30% tint
