How Minnesota’s threshold works
If you sell into Minnesotawithout a physical presence there, you may still be required to register for, collect, and remit sales tax once your activity crosses the state’s economic-nexus threshold. Minnesota measures this over the rolling 12 months.
Note: Measured over the prior 12 months. Transaction prong updated to 200 in 2019.
What counts toward the threshold
Minnesota generally counts your gross sales into the state, typically including taxable and many exempt or wholesale sales, not just your profit. The transaction count is the number of separate sales delivered into the state. Sales made through a marketplace that already collects tax for you may be counted differently; this checker measures your direct sales.
What to do if you’ve crossed it
- Register for a sales-tax permit with the Minnesota DOR.
- Start collecting Minnesota sales tax at the correct rate.
- File returns and remit on the state’s schedule.
- Consider a sales-tax professional or automation if you’re near the line in several states.
Deadlines and rates vary by state, so confirm the specifics before you act.
