Transfer Title & Complete Registration
This step determines who will be listed on the title and DMV paperwork of your Rivian, including any co-registrants.
Both primary and co-registrants must be present on vehicle delivery day to sign the DMV paperwork. If applying for financing through Rivian Financial Services (which happens later in the process), the co-registrant will need to be included in the credit application as a co-applicant.

Trade-in a Vehicle
Get a trade-in estimate:
If you’re interested in trading-in a vehicle and would like to receive a trade-in offer from Rivian, you’ll need the following trade-in vehicle info:
Trade-in vehicle’s VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) or license plate number
Trade-in vehicle’s trim level
Trade-in vehicle’s transmission type (automatic or manual)
Trade-in vehicle’s current mileage
Note: there is no obligation to take any offer you receive.
Don’t need to trade-in a vehicle?
Simply hit the “Skip” button to continue to “Apply for Financing”.
Decided to accept the Rivian trade-in offer?
You’ll need to complete the required information and upload a photo of the trade-in vehicle’s title if you currently hold it. You’ll also need to have the physical title with you on your Rivian’s delivery day. If you do not hold the title, you will still need to upload a copy of the vehicle’s registration.
Have a current loan on your trade-in vehicle?
You’ll need the lien holder’s name and your account number ready to enter during this step.
Note: Some vehicle trade-in quotes may require a manual review from our remarketing team. If this occurs, you’ll receive a notice on your account page after completing this step and will be sent an update via email after the review is completed to see your trade-in offer.
Apply for Financing
During this step, you’ll be able to apply for financing or leasing (where available) through Rivian Financial Services, bring your own vehicle financing, or select cash payment.
Rivian Financial Services
The fastest and most convenient financing option is through Rivian Financial Services where you can select the loan term, down payment, and monthly payment that best fits your need.
You are under no obligation to take the finance offer presented.
Here is what you’ll need for the RFS finance application for you and your co-applicant (if applicable):
Make sure that the credit bureau reports for you and your co-applicant (if applicable) are not frozen
You and your co-applicant’s (if applicable) full legal names, phone numbers and email addresses
You and your co-applicant’s (if applicable) Social Security Number
Employment information (including income, employer’s name and phone number, years at job and any additional income information)
Home details (including whether you rent, own or something else; monthly payment; address and time at current residence)
Note: If applying through RFS, your application may need a manual review. If this occurs, you’ll be notified on your account page after submitting your loan application, and you will receive an email with your loan application results.
Third-Party Financing
If you plan to use third-party financing, please follow these steps:
Get approval from the finance provider of your choosing (your transaction’s Purchase Summary or Purchase Agreement can be provided to your lender to assist in securing your approval and loan).
Once approved, confirm the lien holder information including the lender name, your financed amount, and the lender’s method of payment (Check, Wire, or ACH).
Submit final payment for delivery. Before your vehicle is delivered, you must submit the financed amount and any balance directly to Rivian.
Please upload the corresponding proof of 3rd party financing payment, i.e. photo of the check and tracking number or wire transfer receipt.
Insurance Options
In this step, you’ll upload proof of insurance for your Rivian vehicle. We’ll register your new vehicle on your behalf and collecting proof of insurance with your vehicle’s VIN number and submitting it to the DMV is one step we take to ensure a rapid and smooth registration process.
Learn more about what insurance documentation your state requires during vehicle registration.
If you’re shopping for auto insurance, you’ll be able to quickly receive a Rivian Insurance quote for your new Rivian, any other vehicles you own, as well as home and umbrella insurance products.
To receive a quote, you’ll need the following:
VINs for any additional vehicles you'd like to include in your plan.
Driver's license information for all drivers in your household.
