Minneapolis Cleaning Business Requirements
City of Minneapolis Business License
Minneapolis requires a general business license from the Department of Community Planning & Economic Development. Annual renewal is required. Fees vary by business type.
Minnesota Business Registration
Register your LLC or corporation with the Minnesota Secretary of State. Filing an LLC costs $155 online. You’ll also need to register for state tax obligations.
Sales Tax Compliance
Minnesota charges 6.875% state sales tax, plus a 0.5% Minneapolis city sales tax. Residential cleaning services are taxable in Minnesota — you must collect and remit sales tax on all residential cleaning.
General Liability Insurance
Essential in Minneapolis. The city’s high property values and professional client base mean most clients require proof of $1M coverage. Expect $500–$1,000/year.
Paid Sick Leave
Minneapolis requires employers to provide paid sick and safe time — 1 hour for every 30 hours worked, up to 48 hours per year. Factor this into your labor costs.
