Minnesota rules to know before your website goes live

Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but these apply to many Cleveland businesses:

• The name on your website and your sign has to be either your legal name or a registered assumed name (certificate of assumed name). Minn. Stat. 333.01
• Minnesota’s state sales tax is 6.875%: a 6.5% general rate plus the 0.375% increase required by the Minnesota Constitution. Cities, counties and special districts add local sales taxes on top of it. Minnesota Department of Revenue

Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
