Minnesota Weight-Distance Tax
No weight-distance or highway-use tax in Minnesota. No state mileage credential and no separate per-mile return. You still owe the shared floor: IFTA fuel tax filed quarterly, an IRP apportioned plate, and, at 55,000 lb and up, the federal 2290 HVUT (IRS Form 2290) with a stamped Schedule 1 to renew that plate. Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services (DPS) administers IRP and IFTA. No tax here doesn't mean tax-free.

IFTA and registration still apply
Every state, including Minnesota, still reaches you through the IFTA fuel tax (reconciled by the fuel you burn) and IRP apportioned registration (your plate). The only states that add a per-mile weight-distance or highway-use tax on top are Kentucky, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Connecticut.
