The blue corrugated shield base reminds of the location of the community in the boggy Mindeltal (Salger Moos), the golden rosette is taken from the cloister coat of arms of the Ottobeuren monastery, for which ownership in Salgen can be proven as early as the 11th century.

The coat of arms was designed by the heraldist Max Reinhart from Passau.
