    As far as I know, the maximum unbraked trailer mass is 750kg in Europe, although for some cars it can be lower.

    With a braked trailer the limit is up to the manufacturer (and your driver’s license).

      Thank you! How long has the trailer brake been common/mandated over that size in Europe? I tried looking it up but the closest I could find was some UK government website mentioning the 90s (or maybe early 2000s).

        Trailer size up to 750kg, anything above it needs special license regardless of what’s towing it. Here are the categories:
