I think a UL or CSA or VDE, etc recognized part should be acceptable by any and all agencies. At least safety-critical aspects of its construction are controlled by 3rd party and therefore subject to regular audit.
UL, CSA, and VDE each have their own component standards -- which are not necessarily harmonized. So, they will not accept each others safety determinations. I don't think this will happen until we come up with a CB scheme for components.
