CPA Certification in Minnesota

In Minnesota, exam passers receive a CPA certificate after completing the exam and meeting additional certification requirements, including:

  • One year of work experience
  • passage of a self-study ethics exam
  • 150 college credits

Minnesota CPAs initially earn an active CPA certificate. Minnesota offers two certificate options:

  • Active: requires continuing education; renewal by December 31 based on the Minnesota Board of Accountancy's three-year renewal cycle.
  • Inactive: no continuing education; renewal by December 31 based on the Minnesota Board of Accountancy's three-year renewal cycle. Minnesota CPAs using this status must state 'inactive' when using the credential in print.
