Hello Richard, No other requirements are necessary for your products then "manufacturers declaration", based on EMC and/or LVD requirements/tests, who are backed up by appropriate standards to attach the ce-mark and export to europe. Make sure safety instructions are in the right European language. Although the lVD directive does not insist on this, local authorities are keen on maintaining safety. If any problems occcur, directly contact the European Commission by means of the appropriate office for compliants. Make sure you have a representative in Europe, who can be contacted for inspection of technical files.
