If your South Dakota commercial driver's license (CDL) is lost, stolen, or destroyed, you can apply for a replacement license. While not required by South Dakota law, it is a good idea to notify your local police department if you believe your CDL has been stolen.

1. Visit your nearest exam station in order to apply for a replacement CDL in person.
2. You must present two valid forms of identification, including at least one primary document and one secondary document.
3. Submit the replacement fee of $6.
4. If your current CDL is damaged, you must surrender it at the exam station when you apply for a replacement.
