Request and track the Mercedes-Benz Financial Services title packet to Washington
Washington tells movers whose title is held by a bank to get the chosen vehicle licensing office's fax number and have the title holder fax a copy. The title application separately records the registered owner and legal owner or lienholder.
Washington requires the driver license before vehicle registration and gives new residents 30 days. A generic title copy sent to the wrong office does not complete the handoff.
Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Washington controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Washington
Choose the Washington vehicle licensing office before contacting the lessor. Ask the office for its fax number and confirm how it wants the lessor shown as legal owner.
- 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 lessee chooses a vehicle licensing office and gets its fax number. The lessor sends the title copy there, while the lessee supplies the Washington license, application, mileage, registration materials, and fees.
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.
