How to Create an Account

1. The creation of an online account is a one-time process. To create an online account:

• Go to this page to Create an Online Account
• Enter your email address in the email address field
• Come up with a password you can remember (See password requirements below)
• Click on the box to accept the terms and conditions
• Click "create account"

Passwords must:

• be a minimum of 8 characters in length
• contain at least one uppercase letter
• contain at least one lowercase letter
• password must contain at least one number

2. Wait for a confirmation email from business.services@state.mn.us (link valid for 24 hours).

If you don't get an email within 24 hours, check your spam folder. If you still don't receive one, give us a call at: 651-296-2803.

3. Next, confirm your email address:

• When you receive the email, click the link within the email or right click the link and select 'open hyperlink'.
• This will take you to a screen where you can enter your email address and password you created in step 1. This step DOES NOT log you into the site, it is simply to confirm that we have the correct email for you.

4. Login to the site.

You may now use the same email address and password to login to the site.
