SF 131 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Disabled veterans vehicle registration tax amendment

This bill amends Minnesota's vehicle registration tax law to provide a tax reduction for disabled veterans. It requires that disabled veterans pay only the percentage of the registration tax corresponding to their U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs disability rating (e.g., 30% tax for a 30% disability rating), applying to only one vehicle per owner. The law also mandates that the state transfer funds from the general fund to the highway user fund each July 15 to cover the lost tax revenue from these reductions. The policy directly affects disabled veterans who own vehicles in Minnesota, reducing their registration costs based on their VA disability rating.
