Initial EASA CLASS 1 / UK-CAA CLASS 1

Hello everybody,
I'm new to the forum (even I've been reading you for years).
I'm based in UK at the moment and I would like to attend the initial class 1 medical examination to understand if there's anything wrong with me.
My intention then is to go for a modular atpl to start with bush piloting wherever around the world.

This said, my question is about which initial class 1 should I undertake (considering also that the EASA is 100£ more than the UK-CAA).
I have tried to get this information from the CAA website but I'm still very doubtful.

Thank you very much to anyone willing to answer.

Is the UK-CAA a uk-limited version of the EASA?
I'd like to know what's the difference.

I'm sorry if it is a banal question (cause it sounds like that..) but I really wasn't able to find this information...

The initial class one medical issued by the UK CAA is an EASA class one.
Your initial licence will be a CPL/IR which needs a standard EASA class one for flying outside the UK. Bushing flying.
Depending where you fly, jumping through FAA hops might get required.

Avoid Australia ~ they are a law unto themselves.
