Assuming your vehicle is currently registered in that state, you can take the out-of-state registration or proof of title to any Secretary of State branch office. As long as you also have proof of Michigan no-fault insurance, Michigan will issue a “Foreign Ownership―Registration Only” registration for the vehicle. You’ll get plates, but the vehicle will remain titled in your former state.
