South Dakota also has several fees associated with the title recovery process:
When you pay off a vehicle loan, your lender is required to provide you with proof that they no longer have a claim on that vehicle within 20 days of the final payment. There are two options for this; first, the lender can sign the original title and mail that to you. Otherwise, the lender can provide a separate lien release document. Regardless of the method for the lien release, you will take that along with your current title to the DMV to apply for a new, clear title. Some lenders will notify the DMV electronically, and send you a paper title.
