Can I move my Hyundai Motor Finance lease to Illinois?

Ask the destination motor vehicle office what it needs, then update the Hyundai Motor Finance account address before starting the State-to-State Transfer request. Illinois publishes an extra document set for a leased vehicle: the lease purchase agreement, out-of-state registration, out-of-state title, and the title application materials.

How do I start the Hyundai Motor Finance title request?

If the destination office needs documents from Hyundai Motor Finance, fax your written request or the office's form to (714) 368-7844, or mail it to Hyundai Motor Finance, Attn: Titles Department, 6100 W. Plano Pkwy., Ste 2000, Plano, TX 75093. Include your Hyundai Motor Finance account number, the VIN, a callback number for you, the state you are moving from, your new address, the office's name, address, phone and fax number, and a list of the documents it needs (the title, a letter of permission, a limited power of attorney, or similar). For questions about your account, Hyundai Motor Finance customer service is 800-523-4030 (Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern). Hyundai says that if your current title is paper, it sends the documents to the motor vehicle office within 10 business days of your request by FedEx three-day shipping. If your title is electronic, Hyundai asks your original state to print it and mail it to Hyundai, and says the entire process can take 4-6 weeks and that how long the paper title takes to arrive is up to the state. A separate Hyundai notice says DMVs are currently taking 45 to 180 days for a number of requests, including state transfers and printing titles. Hyundai recommends staying in contact with the DMV to confirm it received the documents, and notes that some DMVs hold them only for a limited time.

Illinois timingWithin 30 days after establishing Illinois residence

Illinois says lessors and lessees do not receive the ordinary three-month mover tax exemption. If your leasing company has not already filed it, the Illinois Department of Revenue requires Form RUT-25-LSE within 30 days after the vehicle is brought into Illinois, with a copy of the lease contract attached. That deadline is separate from the registration deadline.

Timing check

This is where the move can get tight.

Hyundai Motor Finance publishes timing that can reach 42 days. Illinois lists a 30-day vehicle window. Start before the move when possible. If the clock has started, ask the agency about a temporary or alternate title path.

Where the two processes meet

The lessor controls delivery. Illinois controls acceptance.

01Start with Illinois
Ask the lessor whether it already filed Form RUT-25-LSE or paid the Illinois tax on the lease. Then confirm the lessor's exact name and title-delivery method, and build the VSD-190 packet with the lease and current out-of-state registration.
02Open the Hyundai Motor Finance request
Ask the destination motor vehicle office what it needs, then update the Hyundai Motor Finance account address before starting the State-to-State Transfer request.
03Use the official channel
If the destination office needs documents from Hyundai Motor Finance, fax your written request or the office's form to (714) 368-7844, or mail it to Hyundai Motor Finance, Attn: Titles Department, 6100 W. Plano Pkwy., Ste 2000, Plano, TX 75093. Include your Hyundai Motor Finance account number, the VIN, a callback number for you, the state you are moving from, your new address, the office's name, address, phone and fax number, and a list of the documents it needs (the title, a letter of permission, a limited power of attorney, or similar). For questions about your account, Hyundai Motor Finance customer service is 800-523-4030 (Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern).
04Confirm usable receipt
The lessor supplies the ownership document and the exact owner information for Form VSD-190. The lessor files Form RUT-25-LSE when it bought the vehicle from an out-of-state retailer not registered with the Illinois Department of Revenue, and the lessee files it if the leasing company does not. For a lessee who used the vehicle outside Illinois first, the Form RUT-25-LSE instructions subject the selling price to a reasonable allowance for depreciation for the period of prior out-of-state use. The lessee provides the lease, old registration, Illinois address, mileage, insurance, and any inspection proof.
