Don't confuse licences and ratings! To fly privately for no remuneration you only need a PPL. If you are to be remunerated then you must have a commercial licence.

The Type rating is what qualifies you to fly a specific type and at the single pilot level may require a HP endorsement or at the multipilot level may actually require ATPL level knowledge and a MCC qualiffication. An IR may also be required, which in turn requires a night qualification and half the ATPL exams.
