Hope you've got plenty of money $$$..

CE is basically self certified.. BUT you better have data/testing to back it up..

The manufacturer must carry out a conformity assessment, set up a technical file and sign an EC declaration of conformity. The documentation has to be made available to authorities on request.

With a little looking around, you should be able to find a conveniently situated testing lab that can handle all the details. From such a search less than two years ago, it seemed that some labs in Hong Kong had the best prices for the kind of testing we needed.
 
Easy Guidance of CE Certificate to help manufacturers and exporters get their product CE marked. CE Marking applies only to products regulated by the European commissions health, safety and environmental protection legislation product directives. All other consumer products are subject to the requirements of the general product safety directive 92/59/EC
