Hyundai Motor Finance lease moving to Michigan

Request and track the Hyundai Motor Finance title packet to Michigan

Michigan accepts a current registration or several forms of title proof when the ownership document stays out of state. It then issues Foreign Ownership - Registration Only and leaves the out-of-state title in place.

Michigan timingImmediately after becoming a Michigan resident

The out-of-state registration must be current or expired less than 90 days unless another accepted title record is supplied. Michigan does not issue a new title on this path.

Timing check
This is where the move can get tight.

Hyundai Motor Finance publishes timing that can reach 42 days. Michigan requires vehicle action when residency begins. Start before the move when possible. If the clock has started, ask the agency about a temporary or alternate title path.

One connected handoff

Where the two processes meet

The lessor controls delivery. Michigan controls acceptance.

  1. 01Start with Michigan

    Ask a Secretary of State branch which listed ownership proof it will use, then request that exact record from the lessor instead of automatically asking for the original title.

  2. 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.

  3. 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).

  4. 04Confirm usable receipt

    The lessor or its title service supplies a title copy, memo title, validated application, official vehicle record, or qualifying electronic title record. The lessee takes that proof, the registration, and Michigan no-fault insurance to a branch.
