valid night rating, 3 t/o and landings in the previous 90 days as sole manipulator of the controls at night I think.
on the type to be flown.

I think only one of them has to be at night. Must be sole manipulator of the controls.
[edited to add]
P.S. In the class to be flown, unless it has a type rating.

Correct. Standard 90 day currency rules. 1 of the 3 t/o and landings must have been at night.
Translation: turn up at airport, do a quick circuit, collect pax, go flying. Type nothing to do with it.

If you have an imc or ir you are exempt the one t/o- landing at night to carry passengers.

That's certainly true for the holder of an IR, but I don't believe the same is applicable for an IMC rating. Not according to LASORS anyway...

"Translation: turn up at airport, do a quick circuit, collect pax, go flying. Type nothing to do with it."
... but bear in mind, you still have had to have done THREE t/o and landings in the previous 90 days before taking pax (irrespective of day or night)...
in other words, you can only "turn up and do a night circuit before taking pax" IF you've already done at least 2 other t/o and landings in the last 90 days....
... and you're right, type and imc ratings have nothing to do with it.
