Request and track the BMW Financial Services title packet to Tennessee
Tennessee lists a Leased Vehicle Owner's Authorization to Lessee for a long-term lease. The state separately warns that an ordinary power of attorney does not replace that form unless it contains the required authorization language.
Do not assume a generic power of attorney is enough. Tennessee says it is not a substitute for the lessor-authorization form unless it includes that form's language.

Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Tennessee controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Tennessee
Send the Tennessee lessor-authorization form to the leasing company and ask for its tax number, title document, and any separate power of attorney needed for signatures.
- 02Open the BMW Financial Services request
Update the account address on the BMW Financial Services Profile page and elect to receive a Move Pack, or notify BMW Financial Services that re-registration documents are needed.
- 03Use the official channel
Use the online Profile and Move Pack path, complete the re-registration section on the back of an account statement, or contact BMW Financial Services customer service.
- 04Confirm usable receipt
The lessor stays on the title and supplies its authorization, ownership document, and Tennessee tax number when required. The lessee is named on the registration and takes the packet to the county clerk.
What to ask BMW Financial Services for
BMW says the new state may require re-registration within 30 days or less. Request the Move Pack before the destination registration deadline.
