You'd need to look into the regulations for the country where you intend to=
 sell.=20
CE compliance and ROHS compliance (not the same thing) are required in lots=
 of places, but possibly not all.
You might inquire at a compliance test lab locally, they can probably point=
 you to the appropriate regs.

perience in it and have known and solved the problem long ago) but I still =
don't know if I can legally use lead soldering in automotive ECU's. :-)
