South Dakota Vehicle Registering Procedures

All vehicles in South Dakota are identified by a title. A vehicle title is a legal document that establishes who owns the vehicle and provides basic information about the vehicle. You always need to make sure that you transfer the title from the previous owner to the new owner correctly.

The local county treasurer’s offices work with titles and registration. The seller signs the title and registration application. The buyer also signs the title application and the title reassignment in the appropriate box.

When you buy a vehicle from a private seller or buy a vehicle in a different state, you need to follow certain steps. Get the title and the application for registering a vehicle, as well as the odometer reading, Power of Attorney, and the Bill of Sale.’

In case you have bought your vehicle from a dealer, they will send you the necessary application forms and reassignments, and Power of Attorney.
