When your Montana license plates and registration are ready, you’ll be prompted to provide a destination address that’s convenient for you to receive your items.

We know that you’re probably traveling, so the “To” address that you provide here can be different from the address that you provide for the “From” address that you provided to send your vehicle’s prior title.

Initiate a shipment of your license plates and registration to your desired address when the items are available.

Even if you already know your desired delivery address, address input will not be available until your plates and registration are available.

Destination Options

Two destination options are available:

  • Mail to address. This can be the address of a friend, family member, dealership, or any other delivery destination that's convenient for you. A signature is not required for delivery.

  • Pickup at Fedex Location. If you don't have a delivery destination near you when your items are ready, you can choose to have your items delivered to a Fedex service point, where your items will be held for up to 5 business days for pickup.

While the Fedex location search service works well for most of the US and Canada, it may miss some Fedex locations in certain parts of those countries.

If the service is unable to identify a Fedex location in the zip code that you provide, you can enter the address of a Fedex location that holds Express packages for pickup (see below) using the Mail to Address option, and your shipment will be held at that Fedex location for pickup for up to five business days.

Fedex locations that hold Express packages for pickup

You can search for Fedex locations at local.fedex.com.

Make sure that the location that you select lists “Hold Express package for pickup” as a Shipping service.

Find a Fedex location that offer the "Hold Express package for pickup" service

Selecting a location that doesn’t provide the "Hold Express package for pickup" service may result in delays and additional fees.

Shipment timing

We usually ship your items within one to two business days after you submit your desired address.

For destinations inside the US, we ship your items second day, meaning that they are expected to arrive two business days after sending.

You can expect to receive your items about four business days after submitting your desired address (for destinations inside the United States).

International Shipments

International shipments can take three to five business days to reach Europe and Australia, and as long as ten to 14 business days to reach Central and South America.

International shipments are subject an international shipment fee.

visitor.us is not responsible for delayed, undeliverable, or lost shipments

Many factors outside of visitor.us' control may cause a shipment to be delayed, lost, or undeliverable.

Factors include invalid address entry by you, and operational and weather-related delays experienced by the shipper.

Once we send a shipment, you are responsible for collecting it and, if necessary, you are responsible for contacting the shipper to arrange final delivery.

Customers whose shipments are returned to visitor.us will be charged a $100 fee for shipment reprocessing.

Please take extra care when entering your shipping destination.
