You hold a Class B driving licence. What trailer are you allowed to tow?

With a Class B driving licence in Germany, you are allowed to tow trailers in two main cases: first, trailers with a maximum authorised mass (MAM) of up to 750 kg; second, trailers over 750 kg as long as the total MAM of the vehicle plus trailer does not exceed 3,500 kg. This means you can tow heavier trailers only if the combined weight stays within this 3,500 kg limit. Trailers with a MAM over 750 kg, where the total exceeds 3,500 kg, or trailers weighing 3,500 kg by themselves, are not allowed without additional licensing. This rule ensures safe handling and control of your vehicle when towing.
