Does the AZ DMV have a process via mail? or do you have to do it in person?

buggy has a current AZ title.... looking to transfer it into my name. I have an AZ address..... but have also heard you can still use a CA mailing address? Is this true?

Good question. I do know they DO NOT send renewal notices. This is one of those...I'd call AZ MDOT.

Contact MVD | Department of Transportation

You can transfer Arizona titles between Arizona residents online, but it requires some work from the seller.

Have you successfully done this with anything other than a regular car or truck? Attempted to do it couple years back on a quad and had issues, seems they are very selective as to what you can transfer online. Curious if it's improved or not since then
 
I am a CA resident with dirt bikes registered in AZ. I cannot sign up for online services though. From the little info available I think you need a AZ drivers license to have an account.
I plan to stop in next time I am in Yuma and find out more info.

The AZ MVD will let you have a physical address and a mailing address that are not the same.

do you know if you have to go in person to do a title transfer or if it can be done online / through the mail? (this is for a sandcar)
 
If your title is spscs special contruction and body type is db it can be a real pain in ass to do. Well atleast for me it was.

They required a level 2 inspection and were only going to give me an ohv only plate.
 
Quick stop is a 3rd party, but fees are low and they’re easy to deal with.
Most can be done online with Az mvd or quick stop
If in person walk into mvd a long wait in Az is 15-20 mins lol
Yes you can have ca address for mail to.
My rail is fully plated AZ with Az address, but mail to Ca address
New build registration was super easy, car didn’t even come out of trailer
 
My new to me sandcar was registered in CA with a SPCN title. AZMVD required a Level 2 inspection for the transfer. Depending on where you go, the vin officer is only there on specific days. He is in Lake Havasu City on Thursdays. They have his schedule online. You are supposed to make an appt, but you can try to walk in. I couldn't make an appointment online because the CA vin wasn't in AZ's system. I had to email them, give them the requested information and then they gave me an appointment date/time (I didn't get to choose). That process took 3+ weeks. Inspection was $20 and 10mins, car stayed on the trailer.

Once I had that done, I headed over to Quick Stop. They had a tough time completing the registration because the officer wrote down "not suitable for off-highway use" on his inspection. So they just registered it as a normal car registration. So I had to get a big plate vs the OHV plate. Kind of dumb. They just went off of internet pricing for a car like mine instead of me having to provide receipts of the build. I just told them what to look up.

If you have existing vehicles registered with AZMVD, you have an active online account, and ID or DL you should be able to do it online and send the title through the mail. I wish I could say I have done it, but I have not. The title/transfer paperwork has to be notarized. But you run the risk of that title being lost in the mail. My suggestion is make a trip to AZMVD or QuickStop. You give them your AZ address and make sure your mailing/billing address is your CA address if you want your documents to be sent there. QuickStop is my go to, they are super easy to work with and fast. To me its worth the $40 extra. They want your business and make sure you leave there happy.
