What's in the Minnesota rate file

Minnesota data ships inside every edition — we do not sell single-state files. Each row carries the ZIP code, county and city name, the rate at each jurisdiction level, the combined total, and whether shipping is taxable. The higher editions add district reporting codes, FIPS codes, effective dates and sales tax holiday windows.

Research

Official Minnesota sales tax resources

Every link below goes to an official Minnesota government source, not to us. The state is always the authority — our file is how you avoid checking it by hand every month.

How local tax works in Minnesota. State-collected. The Department administers many local sales taxes, which apply to the same base as the state tax and are reported on the same return; special local taxes on lodging, liquor, admissions and restaurants are handled separately.

Worth knowing. A Streamlined member using destination sourcing. New local taxes are announced roughly 30 days ahead via Local Sales Tax Notices. The Department warns that ZIP-based lookups can be wrong where a ZIP crosses a city or county line, and steers users to the address map.

Questions

Minnesota sales tax questions

What is the sales tax rate in Minnesota?

The statewide base rate is 6.875%. Local jurisdictions add their own rate on top, so the rate you must actually charge is almost never the state rate.

Is shipping taxable in Minnesota?

Generally yes. In Minnesota a delivery charge is taxable whether you bill it on its own or roll it in with handling.

That distinction catches people out, which is why our file carries both flags — TAX_SHIPPING_ALONE and TAX_SHIPPING_AND_HANDLING_TOGETHER — on every row, for the specific jurisdiction. Your system doesn't have to encode the rule.

How many sales tax jurisdictions are there in Minnesota?

We track 149 bodies that actually levy a sales tax in Minnesota — 45 counties, 78 cities and 26 special districts — across 952 MN ZIP codes. We count a county, city or district only where it charges something, not merely because it appears in the file.
