Original source: Hóvége

In Hungary, rules for towing caravans and heavy trailers with a B licence have been clarified. To tow a trailer over 750 kg, the combined maximum authorised mass of the vehicle combination must not exceed 3500 kg. The B96 endorsement, introduced in 2013, raises this limit to 4250 kg. The course typically costs between 70,000 and 150,000 forints. If the total mass exceeds 4250 kg, a BE category is required.
