Interesting. Are Adafruit (https://www.adafruit.com/category/112) and Sparkfun (https://www.sparkfun.com/categories/16) certifying each of their wireless module breakout boards, for example?


Adafruit is an US company, they can take advantage of simpler US regulations. As long as I import the modules for private usage, I don't need EU regulations (but in case my device causes RF interruptions, I still am liable!).

As soon as I start to selling them for money in the EU, I am the importer and thus need to provide CE certification, R&TTE inspection, WEEE trash register, etc pp.
