Form MV-1S. Motor Vehicle Salvage Title Application

Form MV-1S, or Motor Vehicle Salvage Title Application, is a form used by the Georgia Department of Revenue Motor Vehicle Division to apply for a Salvage Title for motor vehicles. The form is used to document the ownership of a vehicle and its transfer to and from a salvage title.

The main purpose of the form is to document the ownership and transfer of a motor vehicle to and from a salvage title. The form consists of several parts, including a section for the owner's information, the vehicle information, and the statement of the transferor. Important fields include the vehicle identification number (VIN), the vehicle make and model, the vehicle owner's name and address, and the date of the salvage transfer.

When filling out the form, it is important to provide accurate and complete information. Additionally, all necessary paperwork, such as the vehicle's title and registration, must be included.

Examples of when the form would be used include when a vehicle is being sold as salvage, when a vehicle is being purchased with a salvage title, or when ownership of a salvage vehicle is being transferred. The form helps to ensure that the ownership of the vehicle is properly documented and that all parties are appropriately informed.

The strengths of the form include its ability to accurately document the ownership and transfer of a salvage vehicle. Weaknesses may include the potential for errors or omissions if the form is not properly filled out.

Alternative forms or analogues may include forms used by other organizations or agencies which document the ownership and transfer of motor vehicles. The main difference between these forms and Form MV-1S is the specific purpose of the latter, which is to apply for a salvage title for motor vehicles.

Submitting the form typically involves providing it to the Georgia Department of Revenue Motor Vehicle Division in person or submitting it electronically. The form is stored in the applicant's electronic record and may be accessed as needed for administrative purposes.
