New Licensing Requirement for Online Horse and Dog Racing Wagers
⚠️
PROPOSED LEGISLATIONThis bill has been introduced but has NOT been signed into law. Legislative proposals may be amended, passed, or fail to advance. This is not current law.
This proposed bill would require individuals or entities operating online pari-mutuel wagering pools for horse and dog races to obtain a license. It also aims to clarify the tax application on these wagers. Before this change, there was no specific licensing requirement for such operations in South Dakota. This affects operators of online betting platforms for horse and dog racing as well as potential bettors who use these services. The effective date is not specified.
