Can I move my Mercedes-Benz Financial Services lease to District of Columbia?

Confirm the destination state's leased-vehicle packet, then give Mercedes-Benz Financial Services your new billing and garaging address. It says it will provide the documentation for registration in your new state. DC tells lease and lien customers to use its out-of-state title request when the title holder has the document. Registration waits until DC DMV receives the title, and an out-of-state lessor also needs proof of its home-jurisdiction business license.

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.
