Active-Duty Motor Vehicle Exemption

Under Connecticut General Statute 12-81(53), one passenger motor vehicle belonging to, or held in trust for, any member of the United States armed forces is exempt from taxation.

A motor vehicle solely owned or leased by the spouse of the servicemember is not eligible for this exemption.

The completed application form signed by the servicemember and his/her commanding officer, must be submitted to the address below annually between October 1 of the assessment year and December 31st following the tax due date. Any servicemember who does not file a written exemption application within the time specified waives his/her right to claim the exemption for that assessment year.
