Request and track the Mercedes-Benz Financial Services title packet to Indiana
Indiana excludes leased vehicles from its online new-registration path. Its Statement of Existing Lease Agreement must be signed by both the lessor and lessee and presented for title or registration.
Indiana says its online new-registration transaction is not available for a lease vehicle, so plan for the branch handoff before the 60-day deadline.
Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Indiana controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Indiana
Send State Form 12787 to the lessor for signature, then ask the chosen BMV branch how it wants the out-of-state title delivered.
- 02Open the Mercedes-Benz Financial Services request
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.
- 03Use the official channel
Update your address while logged in at mbfs.com (Update Personal Info) or in the My MBFS app. You can also call the Client Service Center at 1.800.654.6222, or include your new address on the Invoice Remittance form when you send your monthly payment.
- 04Confirm usable receipt
The lessor signs the existing-lease statement and supplies the ownership information. The lessee takes the lease packet to a BMV branch, where the title request and out-of-state VIN inspection can be handled.
What to ask Mercedes-Benz Financial Services for
Mercedes-Benz Financial Services does not publish one nationwide delivery time on this page, so start before the destination deadline. It says changes to your garaging address (lease accounts only) may raise or lower the tax on your account, and it points you to your local DMV for more on the tax impact.
