Severely disabled veterans are now eligible for real property tax rates that would allow them to pay $150 annually.

Bill 110, passed by the Maui County Council and signed into law by Mayor Michael Victorino in August, extends real property tax relief to veterans designated as “severely disabled” as a result of a service-connected injury while on duty with U.S. armed forces.

For qualified veterans, real property owned and occupied as a home will be levied an annual real property tax of $150.

The disabled veterans exemption claim form can be found on the Real Property Assessment Division website at www.mauipropertytax.com. Click on the “Forms” tab, then select “Disability Exemption for Disabled Veteran Application” under “Exemption Forms.”

In order to qualify for the 2023 assessment year, veterans must file the completed claim form and required documentation by Dec. 31.

For questions, contact the Real Property Assessment Division by phone at (808) 270-7297 or by email at RPA@co.maui.hi.us.
