Using an Out-of-State Address for Leasing in California

If you are considering registering a lease in California but only have an out-of-state address, there are important guidelines to follow. This article outlines the necessary steps and considerations for processing your lease correctly.

Registering with an Out-of-State Address

Yes, it is permissible to use an out-of-state address when registering a lease in California. However, if you plan on processing a title only and the buyer provides solely an out-of-state address, it is crucial that:

• The full registration fees in California must be paid before proceeding with the lease.
• If these fees are covered, then processing a lease with an out-of-state address is acceptable.

Ensuring Accurate Information

When entering information related to LSR (Lease Registration) or LSE (Lease End), accuracy is key. If the LSE address is required despite having entered names under LSR/LSE:

• Please double-check all details provided during the transaction.
• Make any necessary corrections to ensure smooth e-filing.

Selecting Transaction Type

It’s essential to identify whether you are conducting a Lease or Purchase transaction accurately. Ensure that at the top of your application page:

• The correct type—either "Lease" or "Purchase"—is selected.

This will help facilitate proper identification of your transaction type and prevent potential issues down the line.

LSE Address Requirements

The required LSE address can be provided if both LSR/LSE names are present during registration renewal. The following points should be noted:

<
• The address associated with your lease agreement will serve as the reference point for registration renewal purposes.
• You can find this information by navigating to the “Purchase/Lease” drop-down menu; make sure to select “LEASE” instead of “PURCHASE.”
• If further assistance is needed throughout this process, do not hesitate to reach out!
