For ordinary road use, do trailers and semi-trailers need an ITV technical inspection card, including those with a maximum authorised mass of 750 kg or less?

Correct answer

Yes, all of them.

Yes. The towing vehicle’s ITV card does not replace the trailer’s or semi-trailer’s card. Those with a maximum authorised mass of 750 kg or less also need their technical documentation, although they do not need their own registration permit or independent periodic inspection as heavier trailers do. The coupling and combination must meet their technical requirements.
