If you are out-of-state and need a temporary permit to extend your driver license, please either email us or call 1-800-952-3696 or 605-773-6883.

Please note: If you have been issued a driver license or ID card in another state, your South Dakota license or ID card is inactive and you are not eligible for a duplicate by mail.
