Part of your assessed value is exempt from tax if you have a permanent service-connected disability rating of 60 percent or more. For the 2025-2026 fiscal year the exemption is $17,700 of assessed value at 60 to 79 percent (roughly $620 off property tax or up to $708 off vehicle taxes), $26,550 at 80 to 99 percent (roughly $929 or up to $1,062), and $35,400 at 100 percent (roughly $1,239 or up to $1,416). You choose whether to apply it to your real property taxes or your vehicle registration taxes. A surviving spouse who was married to and living with an eligible disabled veteran for the five years before their death can claim it too.
Apply through the county assessor where you live, not the state. Links to every Nevada county assessor are at the bottom of the state exemption page, and the Nevada Department of Taxation publishes a veteran exemption frequently asked questions page.
Your VA letter showing a permanent service-connected rating of 60 percent or more, your DD214 or other discharge paperwork, and proof you live in Nevada. A surviving spouse also needs the marriage certificate and the veteran’s death certificate.
