Buying a trailer in one state and registering in another

[KatTab]

Hi. We will register our truck and trailer (when we buy them) in Texas, where we have an address.
However, the trailer we want to buy is in the NW. There is a big distance in between. How do we manage this? Does the trailer have to be physically in Texas for us to register it there. Many thanks for your input.

Some states are different but when I bought my Thor Chateau in Austin TX ,they put a 30 day temp tag on it and gave me the paperwork to register and pay taxes etc in LA..Same with my Stingray I bought at chev dealer in Tyler TX...But I paid cash , if you are financing the bank will handle the paperwork
