If I buy a Dell computer in the USA and ship it to Europe to sell as
part of a system including hardware produce by our company, do I have
to put our company?s name and address on the Dell computer as the
importer
Yes, because your US-bought computer almost certainly doesn't meet EU
requirements, unless you tell Dell that's what you want.
or because Dell is well established in Europe I only have to make sure
this information is on the part that we manufacturer? In this case, are
we a Dell importer when Dell already imports their products to Europe?
Yes.
I assume what the EU really wants is a name and address on the product
of someone in Europe that they can get a hold of in case a
non-compliance is discovered.
Yes. This is by no means a new situation. EU regulators have been
chasing multinationals for 20 years about non-compliant product that
turns out to have been imported by Sum Yung Gai.
