Can I move my Kia Finance America lease to Florida?

Ask the destination motor vehicle office for its instructions and any form it provides, then update the mailing, billing, and garaging address in the Kia Finance America account. Kia says an out-of-state move may also require a state-to-state title transfer. 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.

What can I keep in the saved lessor handoff?

Keep the route-specific lessor worksheet, unsigned request cover sheet, destination packet, handoff milestones, and final proof checklist together.

One connected handoff

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 Kia Finance America request
Ask the destination motor vehicle office for its instructions and any form it provides, then update the mailing, billing, and garaging address in the Kia Finance America account. Kia says an out-of-state move may also require a state-to-state title transfer.
03Use the official channel
If the destination office needs documents from Kia Finance America, fax your written request or the office's form to (714) 368-7844, or mail it to Kia Finance America, Attn: Titles Department, 6100 W. Plano Pkwy., Ste 2000, Plano, TX 75093. Include your Kia account number, the VIN, a callback number for you, the state you are moving from, your new address, the office's name, address and phone number, and a list of the documents it needs (which may include the title, a letter of permission or a limited power of attorney). For questions about your account, Kia Finance America customer service is 866-331-5632 (Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern).
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.
