A320 Rating EASA/ICAO Problem

Hello,
I have the following problem with my licence:
At the moment I have an EASA ATP with a valid A320 Rating. The EASA Rating will expire in 1 month but I will get an ICAO licence from a non EASA country with a valid A320 Rating.
In 2 years I maybe want to go back to Europe and renew my A320 Rating on my EASA ATPL. Has anyone any experience how to get then the Rating from the ICAO licence back to the EASA Licence?

Any help is really appreciated because at the moment I consider to pay myself for the renewal of the EASA Rating.

Whilst you do not declare the State of Licence Issue (SOLI) of your EASA licence (I assume it is not the UK), nevertheless, here is an extract from the UK CAA publication CAP 804:

4.2 FCL.740(b): Type Rating Renewal requirement for pilots who hold a Type rating on another licence

The UK CAA has adopted a derogation such that where a pilot holds a Type Rating issued by a third country and that rating is compliant with Annex I to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, the applicability of FCL.740 (b) may be based on the validity dates of the Type Rating of that other country. The effect of this derogation is that to renew the type rating on a UK issued licence:
(i) a pilot with a current and valid 3rd country type rating shall complete the revalidation requirements of FCL.740.A(a) and the aircraft category specific requirements for revalidation of the Part-FCL Type Rating; meaning that he must pass the proficiency check, but is not required to undergo training.
Nothwithstanding the above, if your SOLI has not adopted the approach of the UK CAA in this matter, it will be for an ATO to determine your refresher training needs and would be entitled to take into account issues such as experience and currency on the aircraft type. It may well be that the ATO deems that no training is required. A proficiency check would then have to be undertaken.

Thank you for your reply! The licence is an Austrian Licence.

Tripple Click. !

Since Austria is in the EASA land the rules do not differ from other countries in Europe. The best thing to do though is to send an email to austro control (austrian aviation authority) and ask them about it.

Hope this helps !

All the best.
