You are towing a trailer with your car. Are you required to take out compulsory insurance for the trailer?
Vehicle Documentation
Explanation
To understand if you need to take out **mandatory insurance** for a trailer, it is important to consider its **Maximum Authorized Mass (MMA)**.
- **Trailers with MMA over 750 kg:** They must have mandatory civil liability insurance. This is because, like motor vehicles, they can cause damage to other people, objects, or vehicles in the event of an accident.
- **Trailers with MMA of 750 kg or less:** They do not need mandatory insurance. These trailers are considered less risky and, therefore, are exempt from this obligation.
In summary, you only need to take out insurance for the trailer if its MMA exceeds 750 kg.
