As far as i know, FAA certificates are meant for November(N) registration, if you have to fly any other registered aircraft apart from (N), you have to convert your license(Certificate).
But mind you that FAA certificates are well known and recognized in most part of the world especially here in Africa, so its easy to Convert.
I'm a proud Tanzanian holding an FAA ATP like most of my fellow pilots here in Tanzania, all we had to do is to write a sort of an airlaw examination to convert(validate) into TZ ATPL.
