yes on the box/barcode they print 100EUS.
I have another one rounter RAX200 i can select/change region (I bought it from EBAY). But i don't understand why a new model RAXE300 cannot do.
I do ask supporting group, he just say please try to find out and load the different firmware. But he did not say where is the firmware and how to get it. This is what he answer :
"With regards to your inquiry on "How to change the region in the router?" Apparently, the region is locked based on the place it was manufactured and also the firmware loaded on it. If you want to change it, you may try loading a different firmware."

A library of official firmware for each router is on the support pages fo the device concerned.
Visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
That page will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device, if they exist.
