SDCL § 32-6B-20.2: Offer to sell, sale, or exchange of vehicle without certificate of title allowed under specified circumstances.

A dealer may offer for sale, sell, or exchange a vehicle without a certificate of title if the dealer complies with the following applicable provisions:

(1) The dealer has a record of purchase, sale, or exchange of a vehicle to include the satisfaction of any outstanding liens or encumbrances and a secured power of attorney;

(2) If the vehicle is encumbered by a lien noted on the title, the dealer shows that payment has been tendered to the lienholder for the amount of the lien, except a lien that is the result of dealer inventory financing; or

(3) If the dealer is required by law to obtain title prior to offering the vehicle for sale and the dealer has applied for title through the electronic on-line title system and has submitted the documents to the department.

This section does not relieve a dealer from the provisions of § 32-3-7.
