A vehicle lease is a long-term rental. A lease usually lasts from two to five years. In a lease, you do not own the vehicle. You rent it and can choose to buy it at the end of the lease.
The main difference between leasing and renting a property is the length of the contract. Leasehold is usually granted for at least 21 years and can last as long as 999 years.

There's no standard credit score needed to lease a car. However, you stand a better chance of being approved for a lease with a favorable interest rate if you have good credit or better. On the FICO scoring range, that's a score of 670 or above, though lenders may prefer a score of 700 or above.
In most instances, the initial registration is taken care of by the leasing company. However, you might be required to handle the annual renewals (typical in states like Florida).
In summary, while there are benefits to leasing, the primary disadvantage is that you do not gain ownership or build equity over time, leading to a situation where you have ongoing payments with no eventual payoff.
A score between 620 and 679 is near ideal and a score between 680 and 739 is considered ideal by most automotive dealerships. If you have a score above 680, you are likely to receive appealing lease offers. However, if your score is below 660, you still have a 22 percent chance of earning acceptance.
Show Proof of Income - One of things that will increase your approval odds is showing proof of income. If you can show consistent income, that will dismiss any reservations held by the lending party. Even with a bad credit score, you can still show that you are capable of making your lease payments on time.
