Maui Property Owners Face December 31 Deadline for 2025 Tax Exemption ClaimsSource: Google Street View

Maui property owners must meet a deadline by December 31 to submit exemptions and claims for the 2025 real property assessment year. All required documents, such as deeds or leases, must be recorded with the State of Hawaiʻi Bureau of Conveyances. Late submissions will not be accepted, according to the County of Maui.

Maui residents and organizations need to meet a deadline to claim property tax exemptions for things like homeownership, kuleana land, disability-related needs, and farming. These claims are important for getting tax benefits and keeping legal property status. If a property already has an exemption and nothing has changed, a new claim isn’t needed, but some categories, like long-term rentals and child care, require annual filings. Active-duty military personnel must file by June 30 and provide proof of deployment, as reported by the County of Maui.

Property owners must report any changes to their property within 30 days to keep their exemption. For the 2025 home exemption, you need to file a 2023 N11 tax return by December. Non-residents, non-filers, and part-year residents aren’t eligible. Unpaid property taxes also disqualify you from the exemption. For more details, contact Maui County’s Real Property Assessment Division, as stated by the County of Maui.
