Bill > HF2794

This bill provides a sales and use tax exemption for dietary supplements in Minnesota, effectively removing them from the list of taxable food items. The bill amends several sections of Minnesota tax law to clarify the definition of dietary supplements and explicitly exempt them from sales tax. Specifically, the bill defines dietary supplements as products intended to supplement the diet, containing ingredients like vitamins, minerals, herbs, or amino acids, which are intended for ingestion in various forms (tablets, capsules, powders, etc.) and are labeled with a "Supplement Facts" box as required by federal regulations. The changes will remove dietary supplements from the current list of non-exempt food items, meaning consumers will no longer have to pay sales tax when purchasing these products. The new tax exemption will take effect for sales and purchases made after June 30, 2025, giving businesses and consumers advance notice of the upcoming change in tax treatment for dietary supplements.
