Federal 501(c)(3) status does not automatically exempt your organization from Minnesota sales tax. You may owe tax on items you sell to raise money. You may not be able to buy lodging tax-free even after the Minnesota Department of Revenue grants you exempt status. And the rules treat purchases by your nonprofit very differently from sales made by your nonprofit.</p>
