Can I move my GM Financial lease to Florida?

Make sure your monthly payments are up to date, because GM Financial says it cannot complete a new registration if you are past due. Then contact the destination registration office, which will advise you whether the process goes through GM Financial or directly through the office. Florida publishes a registration-only path when an out-of-state lessor does not want a Florida title. The lessor's letter must authorize the lessee, identify the vehicle, and explain the title status.

How do I start the GM Financial title request?

If the registration office tells you to work with GM Financial, complete GM's Relocation Request Form and mail it to GM Financial, ATTN: Out-of-State Registration Department, P.O. Box 1510, Cockeysville, MD 21030. GM Financial uses a third party that may contact you if anything is missing from your request. If the office handles the process directly, GM says no further steps are needed between you and GM Financial. To reach GM Financial, message it in MyAccount or the GM Financial Mobile app, or call 1-800-284-2271. Its FAQ says Arizona, New York, and West Virginia require the lienholder's permission to re-register. If you need that permission, contact GM Financial for approval. GM Financial says to allow up to 10 business days for the title to be sent to your registration office, so confirm the destination deadline separately. GM also says that changing your state registration near the end of your agreement may cause delays when releasing your title.

Where the two processes meet

The lessor controls delivery. Florida controls acceptance.

01Start with Florida
Ask the county office whether it will title the lease or use registration only, then send the lessor that office's recipient details and Florida's exact letter requirements.
02Open the GM Financial request
Make sure your monthly payments are up to date, because GM Financial says it cannot complete a new registration if you are past due. Then contact the destination registration office, which will advise you whether the process goes through GM Financial or directly through the office.
03Use the official channel
If the registration office tells you to work with GM Financial, complete GM's Relocation Request Form and mail it to GM Financial, ATTN: Out-of-State Registration Department, P.O. Box 1510, Cockeysville, MD 21030. GM Financial uses a third party that may contact you if anything is missing from your request.

04Confirm usable receipt
The lessor sends a letter on its stationery and a title copy, or states that the title is electronic. The county tax collector or license plate agency uses that packet to decide the Florida title or registration-only path.
