Herluf - there is no conversion process. You will have to pass a JAA Class 1 medical, all 14 theoretical knowledge examinations and the ATPL Skill Test on a multi-pilot aeroplane as defined in AMC FCL 1.215. If you do not already have the particular multi-pilot type rating on your non-JAA licence, you will have to complete an approved type rating course before completing the Skill Test.

Babisuri - You cannot take the ATPL Skill Test on a light twin. It must be a multi-pilot type as defined in AMC FCL 1.215. It does not, however, have to be the same type as that on which you built the 500hrs multi-crew time.

Julio - you will have to convince the CAA that your BE200 time was really multi-crew in order to use the time for the 500hr requirement. There are no exemptions and the BE200 is not a multi-crew aeroplane as defined in AMC FCL 1.215. You will, therefore, have to complete an approved type rating course on a multi-crew aeroplane before taking the ATPL Skill Test, after passing the JAA Class 1 medical and the 14 theoretical knowledge examinations.

The chances of a validation, unless you already have the type rating that the sponsoring airline wants, are vanishingly small.
