I can only get automatic replies from them, but when choosing "Je souhaite faire une autre demande" I get an error that I can't use it since it is only available to users with a France Connect identity, which I do not have. I'm really stuck on this website :/

I found another FAQ where the website's answer to this kind of problem was "You have to find a French(wo)man who has a France Connect Identity and will act in your name". I'd say your best bet would be the person who sold you the trailer. I couldn't find a contact phone number on the ANTS website.

As for the Ministry (Ministère de la Transition écologique et solidaire, chargé des Transports), there is only a general phone number: +33 1 40 81 21 22.

After reading this..
I'll NEVER Bitch about the DMV in the USA again!
DMW French style sounds impossible.

Trying Volavoile.net is a good idea, especially if you have good
French (I don't).
Looking back over the thread I'm not clear what is your exact
problem? Is the Certificate of Conformity wrong/has errors? If the
trailer has French registration then presumably the French thought
the (French) paperwork was in all in order?
Have you tried to contact the French authorities by email, attaching
copies of your documents?
During my protracted registration process I was advised, by the
French authorities, to have the trailer inspected by the French DRIRE
authorities. This was done at no small expense and trouble and the
trailer was pronounced roadworthy and the all the documents were
deemed correct. The French registration authorities then declined to
accept the DRIRE recommendation and simply said "Non" (again). So
my advice would be to continue trying to sort the paperwork and do
not get involved in physical trailer inspections because the
registration authorities and the inspection authorities are two quite
different systems and they don't seem to integrate.
i'm resident here in France and would be happy to get a "connect"
number if that would help.
Best of luck.

May bge more cost effective to change the axle and towbar, and register as

This used to be an accepted system in Belgium (until the 90's, when we got the possibility to make all our old, non registered trailers conform to the changed legislation), but as far as I know, this is not a viable option anymore, unless you find a legitimate trailer building firm to take the responsability for the trailer and do the paperwork for you. At a cost...

The. Register it as a new-build in the Netherlands and import from
there. They do accept homebuilt trailers.
