Read the statement at the very bottom of the linked web page. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intelligent-systems/evaluation-platforms/core-i7-4700eq-development-kit.html
This is one approach that has been apparently successful. I believe Intel ships their eval boards all over the world.

As it is sold, do you feel this type of product is really an "Apparatus"? It has no function as sold. Don't you have to incorporate it with other Components to make it work? Isn't it really a Component or sub-assembly incorporated with other Components or sub-assemblies to create a Prototype Apparatus not intended to be marketed? Can you classify it as a "Component" or "Sub-Assembly" which is NOT Intended for Incorporation into an Apparatus??? Referring to the Guide for the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC (8th February 2010), look at the Flow Charts starting on page 10; then go to Flow-Chart 2 on page 16. A "Component or Sub-Assembly NOT Intended for Incorporation into an Apparatus" would be "Excluded from the EMC Directive". An Apparatus must also be intended for the "End User". Though in this case, the End User would be an Engineer with knowledge of Electronics which would most likely include at least some knowledge of EMC. On page 17 of the guide where it describes what an End User is, see the text that says, "Generally an end-user is deemed to have no qualifications in the field of electromagnetic compatibility." Products not intended for the End User is Excluded from the EMC Directive. In the scope of the EMC Directive, it says, "When compliant with the provisions of the EMC Directive, equipment may be placed on the market and/ or put into service in the Community territory, freely moved and operated as designed and intended in the expected electromagnetic environment." So what is the "expected electromagnetic environment" for a product like this? It is intended to be used Temporarily in an engineering lab or Research and Development lab. What is the "Expected" EMC Environment of such an area where prototype electronic devices without any EMC testing is commonly operated for long periods of time? Though I cannot find any text that specifically excludes prototype electronic devices operating in an R&D environment, it is kind of a no brainer. Hope this is somewhat helpful.
