Can I move my Tesla Finance lease to Illinois?

Notify Tesla Finance of the new registration and billing address so it can begin the re-registration and title process when required. Confirm first that Tesla Finance, rather than a third-party lessor, is named on the lease. Illinois publishes an extra document set for a leased vehicle: the lease purchase agreement, out-of-state registration, out-of-state title, and the title application materials.

How do I start the Tesla Finance lease title request?

Use the Financing section of the Tesla app for the direct lease and contact Tesla Finance through the support path published on the lease page. A third-party Tesla lessor must use that lessor's own instructions instead. Tesla does not publish one nationwide re-registration turnaround. Start before the destination deadline and track address notice, required documents, destination filing, and new registration as separate milestones.

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.
