Bill Summary · HF 1104

Legislative bill overview

HF 1104 modifies how retail delivery fees are regulated or structured in Minnesota. The bill has been introduced but lacks detailed public documentation at this early stage, having just completed its first reading and been referred to the Transportation Finance and Policy committee on February 19, 2025.

Why is this important

Retail delivery fees directly affect consumer costs for online shopping and affect the competitive landscape between traditional retail and e-commerce platforms. Changes to fee structures can influence pricing transparency, business compliance burdens, and ultimately what consumers pay for goods delivered to their homes.

Potential points of contention

  • Fee cap vs. market freedom: Whether the state should impose limits on delivery fees (protecting consumers) versus allowing market competition to set prices
  • Small business impact: How modifications affect independent retailers and delivery services versus large platforms like Amazon or DoorDash
  • Enforcement and transparency: Whether businesses must disclose fees upfront and how violations would be monitored and penalized
