Be careful! Although very low powered, regulators still want to regulate! 
We bought an RFID chip and created the antenna via a trace on the board. Guess what—that meant there was no modular approval=we got to do lots of testing!
Next time we’ll choose differently.

I know nothing about the regulatory requirements of an RFID Reader but I assume it has a transceiver so it is considered an Intentional Radiator.  

If I buy a reader over-the-counter in one country, can I use it in another country? Or, like WiFi and Bluetooth, do I have to have a Reader that is Certified for every country/market?  

If I want to integrate an RFID reader into an electronic device or machine, can I buy pre-certified modules for a worldwide market?  Or will I have to have the entire electronic device certified?  

What are my options?  Any insight would be helpful and appreciated.  

Thanks,
The Other Brian
