SB607

Hawaii SB607 exempts disabled veterans from vehicle weight tax but repeals their exemption from annual vehicle registration fees.

Hawaii SB607 aims to align vehicle tax and fee exemptions for active duty military members and disabled veterans. It exempts disabled veterans from the state's vehicle weight tax, while repealing their exemption from the annual vehicle registration fee. This change affects disabled veterans who are Hawaii residents, honorably discharged from the U.S. armed forces, and have a service-connected disability rating of one hundred percent. The bill also mandates a report to the legislature and the Department of Taxation on the number of disabled veterans qualifying for the exemption.
