Lets be clear about what does the term Salvage title mean first. It is an Automobile that has been through total damage and has been termed as a total and complete loss by the insurance company, not only that but a claim has been paid by the insurance company to the owner of that automobile.
For example, a car is termed as total loss 21 days after it has been stolen and not recovered by the police. In such a case, the insurance company pays the claim for the car to the owner and marks the car under a salvage title.
If you ask how you can import automobiles under salvage title? The answer is, you cant. The rule, however, isnt written on stone, there are a few exceptions to this rule. But first, lets discuss which vehicle comes under a salvage title.
