In this paper we introduced the concept of minimal prime filters in commutative BE-algebras. A characterization theorem for minimal prime filters of BE-algebras is derived. Some properties of minimal prime filters of a commutative BE-algebras are derived with the help of congruences. A necessary and sufficient is derived for a pair of minimal prime filters to become co-maximal.
