Correct answer
When its maximum authorised mass exceeds 750 kg.
When its maximum authorised mass exceeds 750 kg. Insurance law article 2.8.b exempts trailers and semi-trailers with a maximum authorised mass no greater than 750 kg, including exactly 750 kg, from their own obligation. The towing car must be insured in any case. For a trailer subject to the requirement, check that the contract specifically covers its compulsory liability; do not assume the car’s policy does so.
