The state of SD is implementing a new motor vehicle software beginning Feb 17th. If you are in the window to renew your registration, (C\D\E\F\G\J), we ask that you please do this as soon as possible to avoid a longer waiting time. You can renew your registration 90 days prior your expiration date. Please be patient with us as we maneuver this new program and allow for a longer wait time.
Vehicle registration renewals will be offline in mySDCars and at the DMV Now Kiosks beginning February 7th,2025, as we transition to the 605Drive system. 605Drive launches February 17th,2025. If you have a February or March vehicle registration renewal (C\D\E\F\G\J), please renew early to avoid any delays.
