Twenty something, you seem to have lost the plot! the poster wants to convert an ICAO INTO A TURKISH, not the other way round.. All the Turkish TREs at our outfit converted to NL approval licences to sign off LPCs.

To convert to an Irish (IAA EASA PART FCL) you must have a valid JAR issue first: but:

It is not possible to convert a non-JAR-FCL CPL/ATPL into an Irish issued JAR-FCL CPL/ATPL, since Ireland implemented JAR-FCL in November, 2000. However, it is possible to obtain credits for such licences towards the issue of a JAR-FCL licence in accordance with the requirements of JAR-FCL 1.016, 2.016 or 3.016, as applicable. Theoretical Knowledge and Flight training credits will be determined by the Irish Aviation Authority who will seek guidance from an appropriate training organisation. FTO's TRTO - See more at: https://www.iaa.ie/ATPL#sthash.PZWybzif.dpuf

Provided that employment or normal residency is established in Ireland. Normal residency means the place where a person usually lives for at least 185 days in each calendar year because of personal and occupational ties or, in the case of a person with no occupational ties, because of personal ties which show close links between that person and the place where he or she is living.

I know of some CX guys whom had UK JAR FCL tickets but were flying on HK CAD licence that converted using an " accommodation address service" in Dublin, but they already had JAR FCL licences issued years ago. The TREs converted at THY using the " third country examiner" privileges and got NL EASA credits, however, again Turkey used to issue "JAR" licences.

But I guess this is a " rumours forum as well"
