Disclosed is a self-lockable electric trailer hitch apparatus, which relates to the technical field of trailer hitching apparatuses. The self-lockable electric trailer hitching apparatus comprises: a trailer hitch body rotatably switching between a resting position and an operating position, a power system actuating the trailer hitch body to rotate, and a mounting bracket secured to a vehicle. The power system comprises an electric motor, and a transmission assembly rotating by drive of the electric motor and drive the trailer hitch body to rotate. The transmission assembly is mounted on the mounting bracket and rotatable relative to the mounting bracket. A self-locking assembly is provided between the transmission assembly and the mounting bracket. When the trailer hitch body is at the operating position, the self-locking assembly is self-locked to limit the transmission assembly from rotation. The self-locking assembly, after being self-locked, limits rotation of the transmission assembly such that the transmission assembly no longer drives the trailer hitch body to rotate, thereby securely holding the trailer hitch body at the operating position, which improves hitching stability and security and ensures smooth proceeding of the hitching process.
