Towing permit: issue
Vehicles which, by virtue of their design, are intended to operate as motor vehicles may not be operated as trailers. In individual cases, an exemption, the so-called towing permit, can be granted. Among other things, the following applies:
- The towing vehicle may carry only one vehicle at a time.
- Vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of more than 4 t may only be carried with the help of a tow bar.
- The lighting equipment prescribed or declared permissible for use as a motor vehicle may be fitted to the towed vehicle. Where they are not required for trailers, they need not be ready for use.
Who should I contact?
The responsibility lies with the district, the district-free city and the municipality, joint municipality and city entrusted with this task.
