If you want to export to Denmark, the product must meet the requirements established under the European Low Voltage Directive, just as for any EU country. >This board will have 220VAC directly connected to it through a >connector.

There are may, many issues apart from the mains circuit clearances. Also, the European mains voltage is 230 V now, not 220 V.
