What makes up a sales tax rate in Minnesota
- The state's share: 6.875%. Levied on every taxable sale in Minnesota, wherever it happens.
- Local shares: nothing to ~3% on top. Counties, cities and special districts each add their own, and a seller collects them together. 63 cities in Minnesota have their own pages with a figure below.
- Your exact address decides. A ZIP code is a postal route and was never drawn to follow tax boundaries, so two addresses sharing one can owe different totals. The calculator narrows it down from your ZIP code.

Why most Minnesota figures are estimates
Of 989 ZIP codes in Minnesota, 518 resolve to a single verified rate for every address inside them. The rest carry an estimate with its range, and the calculator will ask for more than a ZIP code where it needs to.
- 318 A local district in this state is not yet mapped, so this may not be the whole rate.
- 141 This ZIP code crosses a tax boundary, so the rate depends on the street address.
- 6 No tax data is loaded for this area yet.
A ZIP code is a mail route, not a tax boundary. Where one crosses a city or district line, the rate depends on the street address, and no lookup by ZIP code alone can settle it. Enter your ZIP code in the calculator for the closest figure we hold.
Why you can rely on these figures
- Published rates
- State and local rates compiled from the tax authorities that levy them.
- Every figure sourced
- See the jurisdiction breakdown and the document each rate came from.
- No signup
- Use the calculator immediately. Nothing to create, nothing to install.
- Missing means missing
- Where a rate is not verified we say so instead of showing a short total.
