what if I do have to register but the title is not in my name? I have a 2008 Honda Accord that was bought used
For a used vehicle purchased from an out-of-state dealer, you will need to provide an out-of-state title certificate or transferrable registration transferred to the dealer, OR the dealer’s bill of sale that transfers ownership to you
so will I need to register if I move to NY full time?
Yes,  you must register your vehicle here within 30 days of becoming a resident
