OWNER RETAINED VEHICLE
SALVAGE TITLE – REBUILT TITLE
INFORMATION
A vehicle deemed a total loss ("totaled") by an insurance company results in the issuance of a salvage title
for the vehicle. It becomes a "salvage vehicle" and CANNOT be driven on the highways or have a valid
license plate. If restored, it must be inspected and ultimately a "rebuilt title" will be issued for the vehicle. A
rebuilt vehicle with a rebuilt title CAN be driven on the highways.
If a salvage vehicle is retained by the owner, the owner must: (1) restore/rebuild the salvage vehicle “to the
condition that existed before” the damage that totaled it; and (2) have it inspected by the Departement of
Revenue Automobile inspection Section to make sure that the salvage vehicle is completely restored and
that it contains no stolen parts. Additionally, the vehicle must be restored in Alabama and not in another
state.
Once the owner restores/repairs the vehicle, the following documents must be included with an application
for a salvage vehicle inspection:
1.
INV 26-15 Form (Application for Inspection of a Salvage Vehicle)
2.
INV 31-1 Form (Remittance Advice)
3.
The original salvage title properly assigned to the owner
4.
Parts Bills-Of-Sale:
a. Notarized bills of sale of all major component parts (listing the manufacturer's vehicle
identification number of the vehicle from which the parts were removed).
b. Bills of sale of all minor component parts (notarization shall not be required). If a minor
component part contains or should contain the manufacturer's vehicle identification number,
notarization is required.
5.
$90.00 Fee, payable by certified funds
(Application fee of $75.00 plus title fee of $15.00)
Copy of current registration prior to salvage title issued – if unavailable contact your local
6.
licensing official’s office to obtain a copy of the registration
7.
A copy of your state issued driver ID
The above listed documentation should be mail to: Department of Revenue Automobile Inspection Unit, P.O.
Box 327641, Montgomery, Alabama 36132-7641 - Telephone (334) 242-3012.
Upon satisfactory completion of the inspection, a "rebuilt" identification plate will be permanently affixed to
the vehicle and a "rebuilt title" will be issued. Until then, the salvage vehicle cannot be used on the
highways, except for repairs/restoration or to take it for the inspection.
