Can you take an encumbered car into another state to register it?

You can only legally register a vehicle in the state in which you reside. If, for instance, you move to another state, as long as the lienholder knows where the vehicle is going to be located there is no problem. HOWEVER - if you intend to take the vehicle to another state in order to conceal its location from the lienholder then you are committing an unlawful act and attempting to deprive the lienholder of their rightful property. You can be charged with auto theft ESPECIALLY if you cross a state line in order to do it.

The answer would be "YES" if you were to register the car in VA. But the answer would be "NO" if you were to register the vehicle in another state ie: you reside in, or intend to license the vehicle in. In truth with Automobiles the tax mostly called excise is collected by the registrar in the state you are going to register the vehicle in. Not only do you pay the sales tax when you first register the vehicle after purchasing it, but you also pay an excise tax. Note: Some information, starting with another question, has been moved to the Discussion page.
