What is a HazMat Endorsement?
Let's get going. You, a professional CDL driver, need your New Hampshire HazMat endorsement to haul hazardous materials in your freight. These loads carry hazardous substances that can have adverse effects on you and the environment. Thus, they require a special endorsement to be added to your New Hampshire CDL in order to transport them. Additionally, a driver with a hazardous materials endorsement is subject to specific responsibilities beyond the standard requirements set by the Department of Transportation (DOT) of a standard CDL driver without a HazMat endorsement.

Carrying a HazMat endorsement comes with increased responsibilities, including a thorough understanding of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) to avoid violations. The new HazMat Theory training regulation has been mandated to ensure that all drivers are trained and meet a consistent safety standard and training to transport hazardous materials.
NEW: HazMat Theory Requirement & ELDT Mandate
As part of the new ELDT requirements that went into effect on February 7, 2022, all drivers seeking a New Hampshire HazMat endorsement are required to complete a Hazardous Materials theory training program BEFORE testing at a local DMV.
The program must be provided by a company/entity on the official Training Provider Registry and will fulfill the necessary theory instruction needed to take the knowledge test as part of the Federal Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) requirements. As part of the ELDT requirements, this training is now required before taking the written test for the HazMat endorsement at the DMV.
After February 7, 2022, these are the steps to obtain a New Hampshire HazMat endorsement:
- Pass a HazMat theory knowledge exam
- Undergo a required Federal Security Threat Assessment (well-known as TSA: background check)
- Fill out the "Hazardous Materials Endorsement" application through the DMV or TSA, depending on which is required in your state
- Complete a medical screening
- Pass the DMV written exam (varies by state)
- Submit a TSA Background Security Screening either online or in-person
- Wait for TSA to send an official notice of completion. Once the state receives a copy, you will then obtain your hazmat endorsement.
Before you begin these steps you need to have held at least one of the following:
- Commercial learners permit and/or a temporary license
- Employment Authorization Document to earn a hazardous material endorsement
- A valid CDL
C1 Truck Driver Training, a school on the official Training Provider Registry, offers a New Hampshire Hazardous Materials (H) endorsement theory training online course for $99 per individual or for a group rate to businesses. This will help you meet the ELDT requirement and includes sample New Hampshire HazMat Endorsement test questions and answers.
C1 Truck Driver Training will automatically transmit results to the Training Provider Registry upon completion of the program. Once these results are accepted, the driver will be permitted to take the required knowledge test for obtaining a HazMat endorsement at a local New Hampshire Division of Motor Vehicles.
