Alabama Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption

About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Alabama Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption in its Birmingham, AL research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Alabama exempts qualifying disabled veterans and their unremarried surviving spouses from all property taxes on their homestead. Veterans with a permanent and total disability (including 100% VA disability rating) qualify regardless of income or assessed value. Veterans who purchased homes under a VA Special Adapted Housing grant also qualify. The exemption applies as long as the veteran owns and occupies the home.
Full exemption on all property taxes; savings depend on assessed value.
