VA grant-funded state, tribal and territory Veteran cemeteries
VA grant-funded Veterans cemeteries are run by state, territorial or tribal government officials. These locations are different from VA national cemeteries. Eligibility for burial in a Veterans state cemetery is determined by each state. Some states might require legal proof that the Veteran lived in the state (also called “residency”) in order to be eligible for burial in a Veterans state cemetery.
If you need more information, please contact a Veterans state cemetery office directly. Use our facility locator tool to find contact information for Veterans state cemeteries.
