I think that's a but of a legal gray area... not quite sure.
PS:
Good to see you on HN still after all those years, cool to see you interested in my little project. :)
Just in case you have something on the top of your mind... I am kind of looking to build a bit of a hardware - boostrapper support network for myself, do you know anyone I should reach out to? Just other people working in the space... I am not too sure about hardware incubators but I would also be open to ideas there..
- junon 3y agoI get parts shipped to me all the time from the US to EU via Mouser, I can't imagine it being a problem.
- jacquesm 3y agoIt doesn't seem as though GP has a problem sourcing parts, it's more of a networking issue (networking in the real-world sense).
- junon 3y agoI wasn't talking about sourcing parts, OP was talking about certification for sales in the EU which I think can be sidestepped selling as a kit of disparate electronic parts. I can receive Mouser shipments from the US to Germany, for example, as long as they're not development boards (which require a declaration of usage) or certain batteries. I can't imagine why OP would be unable to ship those parts as a kit if they so chose.
- jacquesm 3y agoI don't see that either. There is nothing legally grey about shipping kits. There is about shipping a finished product and marking it as a kit.
- jacquesm 3y agoYes, there is HN user https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=Kliment https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=Kliment who is super knowledgeable about this stuff, and in Germany.
