Understanding New Hampshire ESA Housing Rights

Navigating landlord rules can be stressful, but federal and state laws protect your right to live with your emotional support animal. In New Hampshire, landlords are legally required to provide "reasonable accommodations" for tenants with valid ESA documentation.

The Official Law

New Hampshire landlords cannot deny housing or charge pet fees to tenants with a valid ESA. Landlords can request a letter from a licensed mental health professional to verify the accommodation.

Citation: RSA 354-A

What Landlords Cannot Do in New Hampshire:

  • Charge you upfront pet deposits or monthly "pet rent".
  • Deny your application based solely on the breed or weight of your animal.
  • Require your animal to have specific training (ESAs are not Service Dogs).
  • Ask for detailed medical records regarding your specific diagnosis.
