Hi,

as far as I understand, the xiaomi.eu ROM offers some benefits to the regular global ROM of the Mi 9. As I dropped my Mi 8, I was going to order the global version of the Mi 9. But I don't want any stupid advertisements and bloatware on the phone, but would also like to keep Google Pay and Widevine L1! (My Mi8 made quite some trouble with Google Pay and I was never able to get around the widevine issues with Amazon Prime Video :( )

Can/Should I use the Xiaomi.eu ROM? Would I have to do the unlock shenanigans (waiting days until the phone is allowed to be unlocked and similar) again?
 
yes you need to unlock bootloader... Try searching forum and you will find the answers you seek.
 
Also remember "ok google" doesn't work on xiaomi.eu rom due it is based on chinese rom, and it has not that feature
