GM Financial: move your financed or leased car to another state
Start with the lender's current instructions. Then match them to the new state and build the request before the title moves.
Official lender instructions are linked below. State title rules are added after you choose your route.
Where is the car moving?
We will combine GM Financial's move path with the destination state's title rule. No VIN or account number is collected.
Start with GM Financial's process
The destination state still decides what document it can use and where it must go.
- 01Start here
Use GM Financial's out-of-state registration instructions and compare them with the destination office's current requirements.
- 02Use the approved channel
GM Financial directs movers to its out-of-state registration form. It publishes a separate relocation request for Arizona, New York, and West Virginia when lienholder permission is required.
- 03Plan for the handoff
Update the account address and start before the destination deadline. Extra signatures or a power of attorney may be required for some lease cases.

A lender request is only useful if the new state can use it
Some states want an original title. Others accept a copy, lien letter, or registration-only path. Some require the local office to start the request. The builder checks the destination first.
Keep the lender request and receipt together
Add the two states to keep the request, lender send status, destination receipt, and final proof together.
Keep your place and return later
Track your progress, dates, title requests, and receipts to keep. We will email a private return link.
GM Financial move questions
- How do I contact GM Financial about an out-of-state title transfer?
