Pricing for a South Dakota MVR

Pricing in South Dakota is the same as every other state we operate in: $50 for MVR Basic, $75 for MVR + CDLIS, $100 for the DOT Hire-Ready bundle (adds FMCSA PSP), $175 for DOT Pre-Employment (adds 12 months of Clearinghouse query management), and $150 for the Annual Refresh (MVR + CDLIS + 12 months of Clearinghouse query management). The optional $25 templated DQ File can be added to any package, and Clearinghouse account setup ($150 employer, $125 driver) is available at checkout.

What does a South Dakota MVR cost through FastDriverScreening?

How far back does a South Dakota driving record go?

The South Dakota DPS returns 3 years of driving history on a standard commercial pull - moving violations, suspensions, accidents, and CDL endorsement status. South Dakota DPS (Driver Licensing Program) returns three years of driving history.

How fast will I get the South Dakota report?

Timing depends on the state. We email the South Dakota record when the South Dakota DPS delivers it.

Do I need CDLIS in addition to the South Dakota MVR?

Yes if the driver is FMCSA-regulated. A South Dakota-only MVR will not surface a prior CDL the driver may have held in another state. CDLIS (the AAMVA Commercial Driver's License Information System) catches that - it is required by 49 CFR §391.23 for new-hire qualification.

Which CDL classes does South Dakota issue?

South Dakota issues Class A, B, C commercial driver's licenses. Our pull captures the full class + endorsement profile for whichever class the driver currently holds.
