For your information, I hold an EASA licence issued by the UK CAA.
I've gone through the revalidation and renewal process here in Germany, based on the UK CAA regulations.
My statement is valid.
I've been flying with the UK licence now for more than 10 years and did both the revalidation and renewal process. SO, I'm quite informed of what it takes to go through these processes.
