No CE marking is not required for RoHS.
What do you mean alternatives? It’s down to you to prove compliance if challenged.

RoHS is not on that list. The website also gives a list of directives that CE marking does apply. RoHS is not on that one either. <http://europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/newapproach/index_en.htm> http://europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/newapproach/index_en.htm For CE marking, conformance assessment is required. I have found limits, but not a standard for establishing that the product itself is less than the limit. Of course we have the "knowledge" (supplier specs) that no part has restricted substances. What is the conformance assessment process for RoHS? Are there alternatives? Is CE marking appropriate?
