City of Duluth Extends February Deadline for Tourism Tax Returns

[Duluth, MN] In coordination with the State of MN announcement extending the due date for February sales tax returns filed with the State due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Duluth will be extending the due date of February tourism tax returns that are due March 20th until April 20th. Tourism Tax returns for the month of February must be filed no later than April 20th. Penalties and interest will not be charged if the February tourism tax returns are filed and paid by April 20th. Returns that have already been filed will not be refunded.

Additional instructions regarding this announcement can be found on the City's website at http://www.duluthmn.gov/Finance. Monies received by the City from tourism tax returns are used by the City to support our tourism industry partners.

“Extending the due date for these payments is the right thing to do,” stated Mayor Emily Larson. “While we aren’t eliminating these payments entirely, as they are critical for the City to continue to provide the services that you rely on, we do want to recognize that providing some flexibility right now will be helpful during this time.”
