FAA type certification is accepted by many countries, but notable exceptions (other authorities that issue their own TCs) include Brazil and, of course, EASA.

That said, as it's a US aircraft the FAA has prime responsibility for continuing airworthiness for the type, so if the FAA suspends or withdraws the TC then the other authorities will inevitably follow suit.
