Bill > H0665

This bill, effective July 1, 2026, creates a sales tax exemption for new motor vehicles purchased by disabled veterans who have a 100 percent service-connected permanent and total disability rating, as confirmed by an identification card from the Department of Veterans' Affairs. The Department of Revenue will issue a special consumer's certificate of exemption, small enough to fit in a wallet, to eligible veterans upon request, which will be used specifically for purchasing a new motor vehicle. The Department of Revenue is also authorized to adopt emergency rules to implement this exemption, which will be effective for six months and can be renewed while permanent rules are being developed, with this specific authorization expiring on June 30, 2028.
