Huh? I defy you to find a NEW set of Christmas lights, of ANY type, no matter
how CHEAP, that is NOT UL-listed in the U.S.


There probably aren't any available for sale in the U.S. that don't bear a UL
certification seal. It's not particularly unusual, though, for cheap Chinese
imports to bear counterfeit UL labels.
