BMW says the new state may require re-registration within 30 days or less. Request the Move Pack before the destination registration deadline. Confirm the current estimate with both BMW Financial Services and the intended Kentucky office.

What if BMW Financial Services says it sent the title but Kentucky cannot find it?
