Europoean diesel fuel

I know the sulfur content in the US ULSD is 15 PPM. Way down from the 500 PPM.
Does anyone know if that's the same in Europe?
I recall the US was a few years behind Europe in starting the use of the ULSD. I was wondering if their current diesel fuel has gone to the next level of clean that's higher then US requirements- like BIN- something???
I know they were working on it.
And isn't there a US mandate that the US go to cleaner diesel fuel by some future year hence?
Just wondering.
thanks
jz
