Sales Tax
The Department of Revenue says to figure the sales tax rate you combine the state general rate (6.875%) and all applicable local rates (local taxes, special local taxes and special taxes), then apply the total to the taxable sale price. Source: Minnesota Department of Revenue, Taxes and Rates.
Local rates change by quarter. The department publishes a rate guide by city; the edition effective October 1, 2026 is Local Sales and Use Tax Rate Guide. Check the edition that covers the date of your purchase.
