Request and track the Ford Credit title packet to Georgia
The county registration shows the leasing company as owner and the lessee's Georgia address. If the lessor holds the out-of-state title, the county agent requests it after the customer supplies the original registration and Form T-17.
Georgia says the lessee cannot obtain the plate if a required title is not in the leasing company's name or is not applied for during registration.

Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Georgia controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Georgia
Ask the county tag office to confirm its MV-1, T-17, and authorization packet before asking the lessor to send the title.
- 02Open the Ford Credit request
Use Register Vehicle in Another State in Ford Credit Account Manager. Ford also says a county clerk may initiate the transfer and request the physical title or a copy.
- 03Use the official channel
Follow the Account Manager steps and compare them with Ford Credit's current state-to-state title transfer guide.
- 04Confirm usable receipt
The county tag office contacts the title holder. If the lessee signs for the leasing company, Georgia requires lessor authorization through Form T-8 or the lease agreement.
What to ask Ford Credit for
The exact document changes by destination and by retail versus lease treatment. Confirm the state path before requesting it.
Form T-8 or a lease agreement authorizing the lessee to sign when needed
Original title or qualifying out-of-state registration and Form T-17
