Statewide Hospitality Fee
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) collects a statewide hospitality fee for all food, beverage and lodging facilities each year. The fee funds statewide food, beverage and lodging program development activities. Temporary food event license holders are also required to pay this fee to MDH. Bills are usually sent in the summer for licenses held in the previous calendar year. For more information: https://www.health.state.mn.us/communities/environment/food/docs/license/hospfee.pdf
