You do not pay Virginia sales and use tax on the purchase of one vehicle if the VA rates you 100 percent service-connected total and permanently disabled. The vehicle has to be owned and used mainly by you or for you. A vehicle bought by your spouse can also qualify if it is used mainly by you or for you.
Submit the Virginia DMV Purchaser’s Statement of Tax Exemption together with a copy of your VA Benefit Summary Letter. Submission instructions are on the DMV page for the exemption.
