John, VBM files are not required for importing of backups, however, significantly increase backup import performance. When you hit the "Import" button in the backup console, just browse to the VBK file with the dependent incrementals located next to this file.

So importing the vbk file will automatically import the vib incremntal files as well?

Correct. Btw, just deleting VBM file from disk does not remove corresponding backup files from Veeam B&R console. If you still have them listed there, VBM will be recreated on the next job run.

You can also recreate VBM with a PowerShell script > Create VBM From Scratch
