Must light trailers (such as one with 400 kg MMA) bear their own license plate distinct from that of the towing vehicle?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

No. Traffic regulations distinguish between light and heavy trailers. Light trailers are those with a Maximum Authorized Mass (MAM) of 750 kg or less. A 400 kg trailer falls into this category and therefore does not need its own license plate or independent registration document. Its only requirement regarding the plate is to display the same license plate as the towing vehicle at the rear. Only trailers weighing more than 750 kg (non-light) must carry their own distinctive red license plate.
