No they are not.  You'll fail your MOT as they are set up for LHD.  Discussed many times on here if you do a search.

at least they ask :y. I wonder how many they sell to people who don't realise.  and surely someone has given them feedback that they are not legal over here... >:(

I got these lights from this seller. Informed by local m.o.t station that the beam will be flat as opposed
to facing the kerb once ajusted. not ideal but would pass an m.o.t although expect an advisory notice...

DOT is an American dept as well ;)

Need to be E marked to be legal here.
