South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem Signs Bill Repealing All Concealed Carry Permit Fees

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) signed legislation Tuesday repealing all concealed carry permit fees in the state.

The National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) reported on the repeal, noting the legislation, SB 212, “reduces the cost of South Dakota carry permits to $0.”

The fee change is effective July 1, 2022.

Noem tweeted about the repeal after signing the legislation:

Today, I signed legislation to repeal all concealed carry fees.

It will not cost you a penny to exercise your Second Amendment rights in South Dakota.
