HB 700 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Authorizes the "Missouri Disabled Veterans Homestead Exemption"

HB 700 creates a property tax exemption for Missouri veterans with service-connected disabilities and their surviving spouses. It provides annual tax relief based on disability rating: $2,500 for 30-49% disability, $5,000 for 50-69%, and 100% exemption for 70%+ disability or qualifying surviving spouses. To qualify, veterans must own a primary residence valued under $250,000 (not used commercially), have an honorable military discharge, and hold a VA disability certification. Surviving spouses may inherit the exemption if they remain residents and meet specific VA dependency requirements, with the exemption applying to tax years beginning January 1, 2026.
