Tesla Sets March 31, 2026 Deadline for Free FSD Transfer Eligibility
Tesla updated its free Full Self-Driving (FSD) transfer policy, requiring customers to place orders by March 31, 2026, to qualify for complimentary FSD transfers. After this deadline, Tesla will impose a transfer fee equivalent to the current FSD purchase price on all resale transactions.
1. Policy Change Details
Tesla has officially amended its FSD transfer policy, announcing that only vehicles ordered with FSD by March 31, 2026, will remain eligible for free transfer of the software package upon resale.
2. Deadline Implications
Buyers who finalize their FSD orders before the March 31 cutoff will retain the ability to transfer FSD at no extra cost, while those missing the deadline will face a transfer fee equal to the prevailing retail price of FSD.
3. Impact on Resale Market
The new cutoff is expected to bolster near-term sales as buyers rush to qualify, and may pressure used EV prices post-deadline as transfer costs erode resale premiums.
