The same could be stated for certain husbands.
I suggest that you show greater consideration to people; it has been

If I remember correctly, it's the Competent Body - the person who approves
(hopefully!) and signs the Technical Construction File - who must be
resident in the EU.
Mind you, this is probably a moot point, now that the EU/USA have signed a
Mutual Recognition Agreement, I assume the USA can now test/approve their
own gear themselves.

Mormons can have more than one wife. This is called polygamy.
Christians can have only one wife. This is called monotony.
