Yes, exactly. Bi-xenon and LED lights must have self-levelling sensors.

As for the headlight washers, there are instances where bi-xenon headlights are not required to have washers in Europe, e.g. a number of VW AG vehicles that have bi-xenons as standard. Those are "low-output" xenon lamps and for some reason, they do not need to be equipped with washers. They are useless anyway, as even BMW adaptive LEDs do not have washers.
