Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Rhode Island controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Rhode Island
Ask the lessor for the original title, power of attorney, and written permission for the Rhode Island transfer before the 30-day window starts running out.
- 02Open the GM Financial request
Use GM Financial's out-of-state registration instructions and compare them with the destination office's current requirements.
- 03Use the official channel
GM Financial directs movers to its out-of-state registration form. It publishes a separate relocation request for Arizona, New York, and West Virginia when lienholder permission is required.
- 04Confirm usable receipt
The customer must get the original title directly from the lessor. Rhode Island DMV states that it will not request the title from a leasing company or financial institution.
