US Minnesota Comprehensive PFAS Product Ban (Amara's Law)

Minnesota's Amara's Law (enacted 2023) requires manufacturers to report intentionally added PFAS in products sold or distributed in the state, and imposes a full ban on non-essential uses of PFAS by 2032. The initial reporting deadline, originally set for January 1, 2026, was extended by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) to July 1, 2026 on July 23, 2025, and was subsequently extended again to September 15, 2026. A one-time, 90-day extension is also available (through December 14, 2026) for companies that apply by August 16, 2026. A statutory amendment on May 28, 2026 narrowed the retroactive scope of the reporting requirement. Previously, reporting applied to all products containing intentionally added PFAS sold or distributed in the state regardless of manufacture date; following the amendment, reporting is now limited to products manufactured on or after July 1, 2023. This change reflects manufacturer feedback that PFAS composition data was difficult to obtain for replacement parts and other products manufactured before the law's enactment. The core framework of the law—a full ban on non-essential PFAS uses by 2032—remains unchanged.
