Businesses wishing to operate in South Dakota need to be registered with the Secretary of State. The South Dakota Secretary of State is the primary custodian of records and business registrations. Information about a South Dakota Corporation can be located by performing a search with the South Dakota Secretary of State.

Another responsibility of the Secretary of State is to dissolve a Corporation that is no longer active.
