Yes, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C56403 is confirmed to fit your 2022 Tiguan R-Line. This wiring harness is custom fit and will attach behind your tail lights. It draws power directly from your VW's battery so it doesn't compromise the factory wiring but rather just captures signal.
We haven't received any complaints or warnings about the wiring harnesses setting off any sensors when a trailer is connected. I recommend checking your owner's manual and seeing what recommendations VW may have for towing. I have linked an installation video below.
I can also confirm that the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13381, you were looking at, does fit your 2022 Tiguan R-Line. I have linked a picture below along with an installation video so you can see what it looks like when installed.
To round out your towing setup I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.
