Mercedes-Benz Financial Services title transfer: move your leased car to another state

Start with the lessor's current instructions. Then match them to the new state and build the request before the title moves.

What the lessor says

Start with Mercedes-Benz Financial Services's process

The destination state controls registration and still decides what document it can use and where it must go. The lessor handles the title it holds, and the two paths need to meet before the state can finish the transfer.

  1. 01Start here

    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.

  2. 02Use the approved 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.

  3. 03Plan for the handoff

    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.

NewState Drive is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Mercedes-Benz Financial Services. Confirm instructions inside your lessor account before sending sensitive information.

After you build the request notes and handoff checklist below, send the request through the lessor's approved channel. You remain in control of every lessor and agency submission. Optional paid help prepares the request and destination packet and handles general follow-up, and you still handle account sign-in, authorization, signatures, payments, inspections, and in-person visits.

Where is the car moving?

Some states want an original title, others accept a copy, lien letter, or registration-only path, and some require the local office to start the request. We will combine Mercedes-Benz Financial Services's move path with the destination state's title rule. No VIN or account number is collected.

Every step above stays free.
