2006 Minnesota Statutes

469.325 INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX EXEMPTION.
    Subdivision 1. Application. An individual, estate, or trust operating a trade or business in
the international economic development zone, and an individual making a qualifying investment
in a qualified business operating in the international economic development zone, qualifies for the
exemptions from taxes imposed under chapter 290, as provided in this section. The exemptions
provided under this section apply only to the extent that the income otherwise would be taxable
under chapter 290. Subtractions under this section from federal taxable income, alternative
minimum taxable income, or any other base subject to tax are limited to the amount that otherwise
would be included in the tax base absent the exemption under this section. This section applies
only to tax years beginning during the duration of the zone.
    Subd. 2. Business income. An individual, estate, or trust is exempt from the taxes imposed
under chapter 290 on net income from the operation of a qualified business in the international
economic development zone. If the trade or business is carried on within and outside of the zone
and the individual is not a resident of Minnesota, the exemption must be apportioned based on the
zone percentage for the taxable year. If the trade or business is carried on within or outside of
the zone and the individual is a resident of Minnesota, the exemption must be apportioned based
on the zone percentage for the taxable year, except the ratios under section 469.321, subdivision
8 , clause (1), items (i) and (ii), must use the denominators of the property and payroll factors
determined under section 290.191. No subtraction is allowed under this section in excess of 20
percent of the sum of the international economic development zone payroll and the adjusted
basis of the property at the time that the property is first used in the international economic
development zone by the business.
