• Any “doing business as” (DBA) name • NAICS code (industry code) • Names and Social Security numbers of owners, officers, or partners • Contact person name and address If you already have a Minnesota Tax ID Number, you may need a new one if the business changes its legal organization or you are required to obtain a new federal EIN. Sales tax permit and other labels If you register for sales tax, your confirmation letter from the Department of Revenue serves as your sales tax permit ; some suppliers may ask for a copy. This same Minnesota Tax ID is sometimes called: • “Sales tax exempt number” • “Resale exemption number” • “Seller’s permit” These are just different terms. If you have a Minnesota Tax ID and are registered for the tax types you need, you do not need additional numbers from the Department of Revenue. If you are registered for income tax withholding, your Minnesota Tax ID also serves as your Minnesota employer ID for withholding purposes; it is not your Unemployment Insurance Employer Account Number. MINNESOTA UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE (UI) EMPLOYER ACCOUNT NUMBER The Minnesota Unemployment Insurance Program (administered by DEED) issues its own employer account numbers, separate from your federal EIN and Minnesota Tax ID. Under Minnesota UI law, any individual or organization that pays covered wages in Minnesota must registerwiththeUIProgramandobtainanemployeraccountnumber.Registrationshouldoccurassoon as you pay your first covered wages, and before the first quarterly wage detail report is due. You register: • Online at Minnesota Unemployment Insurance (UI) by selecting Employers & Agents and choosing “ Register for an Account” • By phone using the UI Employer Self‑Service System. Details about who must register and how to do it are available on the UI Program’s “New Employer Registration” and “New account information” pages.
