There is always the RoHS Directive that demands the CE Mark even if no other Directives apply.

Somewhere in all the Byzantine rules, there is a ban on applying the CE mark if *no* Directive or Regulation that demands it applies to the product.

    Furthermore, I have not found anything document which says that
    you cannot CE mark a product having a DofC listing the GPSR.  The
    proviso that you can issue a DofC against Directive 2001/95/EC but
    cannot CE mark the product is not stated anywhere in the official
    website of the EU (Europa.eu) or in the GPSD.  Perhaps it’s just
    well hidden.
