VoIP and Wireless telecommunications providers that are new
to serving South Dakota customers should submit complete contact
information to the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission, using the
form below.
All telecommunications providers are responsible to annually
submit a gross receipts tax assessment to the PUC. Around March 1 of
each year, the PUC will send a gross receipts tax revenue form to all
telecommunications companies doing business in South Dakota. The sworn
and verified form is due to the PUC by April 1. By May 1, the commission
will establish a rate and assess the gross receipts tax for the
preceding calendar year and send an invoice. The tax is due and payable
by July 15.
In addition, all telecommunications companies doing business
in South Dakota are required to submit an annual report to the PUC by
July 1 of each year, summarizing the company's operations for the
previous calendar year. Companies will be notified in the spring of each
year regarding the requirement. Annual reports may be submitted online.
