2026 rules · verified against Kentucky's primary source
Kentucky offers a partial disabled-veteran property tax break, but not a full exemption at 100%.
No veteran-specific full exemption in effect at DOR. A 100% P&T veteran qualifies as 'totally disabled' for the general homestead exemption of $49,100 (2025-2026), deducted from assessed value - not a full exemption. HB 639 (2025) proposing a graduated disabled-veteran exemption is NOT reflected on the DOR homestead page (unverified/pending). Effective rate ~0.83% (Tax Foundation/Census).
