The 3458A page on the Keysight website is interesting. "Notice for European Union Customers: This product is not updated to EU RoHS compliance and can be ordered via Keysight directly or Keysight Authorized Distributors until 31 December 2016. Beyond this date, the product can still be purchased from Keysight Authorized Distributors. Please contact Keysight Authorized Distributors or your local Keysight sales representative for quotation and ordering."
It seems you can't buy it from Keysight, but you can from their distributors. But most times I've contacted Keysight about buying things, they tell me to get them from their distributors anyway. If I interpret https://www.gov.uk/guidance/rohs-compliance-and-guidance correctly, nobody should be stick non-compliant things in the EU market. I can't be bothered to read in detail the "DIRECTIVE 2011/65/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 8 June 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (recast)" http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2011:174:0088:0110:EN:PDF as I some paint I want to watch dry. But a cursory glance shows exceptions, but none seem relevant to a 3458A.
