Van Buren County (Arkansas) Collector: Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption

The exemption is the State's, under section 26-3-306, as the Arkansas entry on the disabled veteran property tax exemption explains: no tax on the home, its land and personal property for a veteran VA rates 100% permanent and total or pays special monthly compensation for the loss or loss of use of a limb or blindness, carried on by an unremarried surviving spouse and minor children. Act 876 of 2025 added to section 26-3-306(b) that the VA letter "is required to be submitted only one (1) time" and that "annual submission of a letter from the department is not required", from the 2025 assessment year, so long as you tell the collector if you stop qualifying or move. File again for a new home. The county's pages. The transparency page's property tax section says the homestead exemption is applied for "through the Assessor's Office" and that "Other exemptions may be available for: Farmland, Green space, Veterans, Others (call for details)". The disabled veteran exemption is the Collector's, not the Assessor's: bring the VA letter to the Collector, or have Veteran's Services ((501) 745-5114) help with it. The Assessor (Emma Smiley, (501) 745-2464) handles the homestead credit and the Amendment 79 freeze. The office. County Collector Laura Shannon, 1414 Hwy 65 S, Ste 118, Clinton, AR 72031 (mail P.O.
