Actually, Intertek Testing Services is based out of Europe (owns Semko, and a few others), and currently has NRTL status under the ETL mark.

This seems to be the main sticking point for implementing the US-EU MRA. In other words, it exists, but is not yet implemented. So, to answer your question, if a product being sold in the USA requires NRTL approval (it doesn't have to be UL, it can be any of the other NRTL's), then having CE marking is not adequate.
