What happened
The Department of Revenue issued guidance on October 8, 2026, regarding the use of red dyed diesel fuel in South Dakota. The guidance specifies that only agricultural producers holding a valid agricultural exemption certificate may fuel with red dyed diesel for on-road use. This rule is consistent with other states that have relaxed policies on dyed diesel.

Why it matters
Non-agricultural users of dyed diesel remain subject to state and local sales taxes, and may still owe federal taxes in January until federal clarification is received. Sellers are reminded that they must keep properly completed exemption certificates in their records to exempt a sale from applicable tax.
