Chris, UL has offices all over the world. In Europe they now own DEMKO, so if you are close to Denmark that may help. It would be good to check with UL to find out where the closest follow up office is located. They charge for their time to travel to your location. We have a manufacturer in the Philippines. The quarterly inspection is at least $750. That's a big chunk of money to add to one product. Now they also have annual fees for each location. You can find the UL offices at their website wwwul.com

We have a sister company interested in UL listing a product. Their manufacturing facility is in Europe. How are quarterly audits handled for companies outside of the US? Will they need to pay for UL personnel to fly to their plant for audits? Does UL have agents in certain countries that can perform the audits for them? Can they have a European agency certify their product to UL standards and perform the audits? Anybody out there been through this?
