The key appears to be, as a few have mentioned, that if you are selling safe products there won’t be a concern.  However, it is clear that there must be someone based in the EU who is prepared to vouch for the safety of your products and the correctness of your statements about it.  This will be an additional expense and will cause issues for the hobby as many miniature manufacturers are UK based.

The solution would be for one of the EU manufacturers to get paid a small fee to sign-off on the safety descriptions and be the name and address required for labelling compliance.  If they don’t want to then perhaps someone like Karwansaray Publishing might be able to do it?  They won’t need to stock or sell things and they get sent loads of samples of products to review anyway.  If they charge a sensible admin fee then even small manufacturers might be able to afford it.
