Request and track the GM Financial 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 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. 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.
- 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 GM Financial for
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.
Form T-8 or a lease agreement authorizing the lessee to sign when needed
