ICAO Annex One provides the international guidelines for the licensing of Aircraft Maintenance Engineers.

The ICAO Type I and Type II Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) licences have been superseded by a single Aircraft Maintenance Engineer licence since November 1998 (see Annex 1, Chapter 4, paragraph 4.2).
So, US A & P Mechanics are really LAMEs, Certifying Technicians are LAMEs - anyone with an ICAO licence is a LAME.

In UK, a LAME can gain professional registration through the RAeS - provided they can demonstrate the necessary background and experience and are willing to subject themselves to interrogation by...
The Assessors.

Actually, it was quite a pleasant day trip to London and the assessors were OK - a bit like an old-time CAA Oral, but three-on-one instead of the old one to one face-off.
