Must a trailer with a Maximum Authorized Mass (MAM) of 900 kg carry its own independent license plate distinct from the towing vehicle's?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, it is mandatory. Traffic regulations classify trailers into two categories based on their Maximum Authorized Mass (MAM): light (up to 750 kg) and non-light (over 750 kg). Light trailers (≤ 750 kg): Only carry the towing vehicle's license plate on the rear. Non-light trailers (750 kg): Such as the one in the example (900 kg), must carry their own license plate (Red background with black characters, starting with R), in addition to the towing vehicle's plate on the rear. Therefore, since it exceeds the 750 kg threshold, the trailer requires its own registration and distinct plate.
