Thanks for your sharing!
It all depends on what you need from them. If you want to know the regulation of a product type for a country, they may give you a good advice as long as they are providing the testing service. If someone wants to enter into a new market, they need to know all the regulations of the product type for the market in order to calculate their cost. Such traditional testing company might not offer a complete list of relevant regulations. It is simply outside their service scope. Probably you may seek the advice from a law firm rather than a testing company.

My experience to date is that UL only has knowledge being advertised below for only specific product categories/countries/markets. I have witnessed/heard claims of expertise that when it comes time to take action, they know less than the client does. When asked to provide a list of competencies relative to several countries’ requirements for grid compliance of distributed generators, we received an exorbitant quote for UL to research their own capabilities. I have been less than impressed so far with such claims of aid, so I’m reluctant to entertain a subscription service.
