Learn about your privacy options and legal requirements if you win the lottery in South Dakota. Understand whether you can remain anonymous and what steps you can take to protect your identity.
South Dakota requires lottery winners to be publicly identified. Your name, city, and prize amount will typically be disclosed as part of public records.
South Dakota lottery law mandates public disclosure of winners' full names, cities of residence, and prize amounts for all prizes claimed at lottery offices, particularly those over $600. Winners cannot remain fully anonymous, as South Dakota is not an anonymity state. However, claimants may use a trust or LLC to receive the prize, with only the entity's name appearing in public records, providing significant privacy. This option is explicitly permitted by the South Dakota Lottery for major prizes like Powerball and Mega Millions. Smaller prizes under $600 can be claimed anonymously at retailers without ID.
