Maple Grove charges a $200 annual short-term rental license fee for a single-family dwelling, townhouse, or condominium, plus a one-time $400 conversion fee. Beyond city fees, Minnesota short-term rentals are subject to the state general sales tax and any applicable local sales and lodging taxes.
Maple Grove's short-term rental license fee is $200.00 for a single-family dwelling, townhouse, and condominium, with a one-time conversion fee of $400.00. The license is annual and requires an annual rental inspection; license fees are not refundable. The application also requires submission of a Minnesota Department of Revenue Certificate of Compliance (tax clearance under Minn. Stat. 270C.72) and a Minnesota Workers' Compensation Law certificate before issuance. Separately from city license fees, the Minnesota Department of Revenue treats residential short-term rentals as taxable lodging: charges for the rentals are subject to the general rate state sales tax and any applicable local and lodging taxes. Owners who furnish lodging directly to customers must register and collect, report, and remit the tax; accommodations intermediaries such as booking platforms that facilitate all sales must also register and handle collection. Minnesota also authorizes a local lodging tax: under Minn. Stat. 469.190, a city may impose a tax of up to three percent on gross receipts from lodging at a hotel, motel, rooming house, tourist court, or resort, excluding rentals of 30 days or more, with most proceeds dedicated to tourism promotion. Operators should confirm current sales and lodging tax obligations with the Minnesota Department of Revenue.
Failure to remit state sales or lodging tax is enforced by the Minnesota Department of Revenue; a tax clearance issue under Minn. Stat. 270C.72 can block license issuance, renewal, or transfer. Operating without a paid city license is subject to penalties.
