Beginning November 1, 2019, the SCDOR will maintain all state tax liens (new and previously filed) in the online State Tax Lien Registry, http://dor.sc.gov/LienRegistry. The SCDOR will no longer update existing liens or file new liens in county offices. This change is due to the amendment to South Carolina Code Section 12-54-122(G) that passed in March 2019.
