In good old JAAR land, if you have a license on anything else - a Robbo? - then it is a type rating to move to a turbine like R66, EC120, B206, H500, etc. In addition to the minimum hours (5, I think) and a flight test there will be a ground exam to check your familiarity with the aircraft and its operating parameters; i.e. a typical type rating. Nothing more involved in moving from Avgas to first Turbine.
