Licensing & Taxes
You will be covered under MN PEZCon's transient merchant and food licenses. All you need to obtain is a MN state tax ID number. Call 1-651-282-5225 to receive one over the phone. It only takes a few minutes. Please make sure to bring this number to the convention. You need to fill out a ST-19 form in the Hospitality Room before you can sell your products. According to new tax laws, if you do not plan to sell more than $500 in taxable goods during the convention, you are exempt from needing a tax number. You will still need to fill out an ST-19 form stating that you will not be selling more than the required minimum.
Also, if you sell any food item besides PEZ related products, please let us know by the end of June so that we can cover you under our license. Otherwise, you will need to obtain your own temporary food license. It's approximately $30 and requires that you fill out an application, submit a photo and authorize a criminal background check. The process takes about 2-3 weeks. Please contact the City of Bloomington Licensing Department directly at 952-563-8700. |

One More Thing
Please remember that MN PEZCon is a PEZ convention. I understand that dealers have other items to sell besides PEZ. You may bring those items with you, but we would appreciate it if you would limit it to around 10% of your total product.
