Sales tax in Renville County, Minnesota

What is the sales tax rate in Renville County?

Why the rate here is not the whole story

Minnesota's state rate is 6.875 percent and local sales taxes are not automatic. A city or a county has to get specific authority from the Legislature and then win a local referendum, so the local layer is assembled one jurisdiction at a time and the county line is frequently not the tax boundary. Renville County itself levies a 0.5 percent Renville Transit sales tax, which reaches every address in the county. No city in the county levies a tax of its own today, so the combined rate is a uniform 7.375 percent, and that uniformity is a fact about today rather than a rule. Clothing is exempt from Minnesota sales tax at every rate shown here, which is unusual among states and changes none of the rates. Use the department's Sales Tax Rate Calculator for a specific address rather than a single county figure.

How do I find the exact rate for an address in Renville County?

The rate is the same across Renville County, but if you are collecting tax it is worth confirming against the source. Use Minnesota's own lookup. A vendor's calculator is not the state speaking.

Who has to collect sales tax in Renville County?

A seller with a physical presence in Minnesota collects at the rate for the address where the sale takes place. A remote seller collects once it passes Minnesota's economic nexus threshold, which is a separate question from the rate and is covered on our sales tax nexus checker.
