Minnesota tax changes heading into 2027 include significant property tax levy increases (e.g., 7.5% in Ramsey County), a 5-cent gas tax increase by fiscal year 2027, and a 15% cannabis gross receipts tax. Other adjustments feature a June accelerated sales tax payment reinstatement in 2027 and potential expansions of sales tax on services.
The 2023 Minnesota legislative session, signed by Governor Tim Walz, implemented significant tax changes, including a 1% sales tax increase in the seven-county Twin Cities metro area (effective Oct 1, 2023), a new 50-cent retail delivery fee on orders over $100, and a 1% surtax on net investment income over $1 million
In 2024, Minnesota implemented a new 1% tax on net investment income over $1 million, alongside a 0.75% metro-area sales tax for transportation and new local sales taxes, such as a 1.5% rate in St. Paul. While income tax brackets were adjusted for inflation, high-income earners saw increased taxes, and preliminary 2024 property tax levies rose by 7.3% statewide.
Minnesota has several tax changes for 2025, including increased cannabis and cigarette taxes, elimination of data center electricity tax breaks, and annual fuel tax adjustments, plus potential significant property tax hikes as local governments proposed large increases for 2026 levies
Minnesota is seeing significant tax adjustments for 2026, primarily driven by a projected 6.9% increase in statewide property tax levies (roughly $948 million), marking one of the highest jumps in two decades due to inflation and rising operational costs.
