The PA46 310P is on the EASA list as requiring a specific type rating.
That is incorrect - from the 23 Jan 2019 edition of the EASA type rating and licence endorsement list flight crew:

Class rating SEP (land) for PA-46-310P (Malibu), PA-46-350P (Malibu Mirage), and PA-46R-350T (Malibu Matrix).

Difference levels for the PA-46R-350T (Malibu Matrix) have not been evaluated.

Differences training which is not further specified, was established by the JAA between the Piper PA-46-310P (Malibu)/PA-46-350P (Malibu Mirage) and the PA-46-500TP (Malibu Meridian) aircraft.
So for anyone who hasn't flown a PA-46-310P before, the only requirement is for 'variant familiarisation' - which doesn't even need to be with an instructor.
