The simpler solution would be to make a EU paid for service.

The licence fee is for use in the UK.
Whether you are an Ethiopian doctor working in the NHS, a Latvian working at a car wash, or a UK contractor working in IT. If you want to watch the BBC iplayer in the UK; a service only available in the UK, you need to pay the UK licence fee.
