License and Regulatory Fees
Annual License Fee
The annual organization license fee is $350. The fee is not prorated, refundable, or transferable.
Organizations that expect to receive less than $100,000 in gross annual gambling receipts may request a waiver, in writing, of the annual organization license fee from the Gambling Control Board. This waiver does not apply to the gambling manager license and premises permit fees.
License and permit fees are paid to the Board on a yearly basis.
- When an organization submits its initial organization license application, it must pay license and permit fees that are good for one year.
- Each year thereafter, the Board will send the CEO a notice of annual fees due for the organization license ($350), gambling manager license ($100), and for each premises permit ($150). An organization that fails to pay its annual fees by the due date may be issued a citation or other sanctions.
Monthly Regulatory Fee
Once an organization is licensed, it must pay a monthly regulatory fee of 0.125% (.00125) of the gross receipts from lawful gambling conducted at all sites at which it conducts lawful gambling.
- The monthly fee is reported on the G1 Lawful Gambling Monthly Tax Return and paid to the commissioner of the Department of Revenue with the tax return for that month. Instructions are in the Minnesota Lawful Gambling Tax Forms and Instructions booklet available from Revenue.
- Failure to pay the fee in a timely manner may result in disciplinary action by the Gambling Control Board.
