Transfer UK ATPL to EASA
So what is the best way around this now?
If I wanted to convert my UK issued ATPL to an EASA state what is the best route in terms of ease, cost? I've looked online but it seems to be a complicated matter and I'm sure some of you guys must have gone through this recently (i.e. after the UK withdrew from EASA). |

Apologies for that. Still no clearer! Should be able to send PMs now, however. Cheers ------------------------------------------- Until you have a posting history you don't have access to private messaging and adding urls. 5 messages blocking you in. Email will work just fine if you pass it on. |
D.F. - got your message, can't reply as your inbox full also. Send me your email or clear some messages and I'll get the info across to you.

I’d also appreciate the route anyone has taken with this. Feel free to pm me.
Cheers |
Any updates on the situation. Journey man can you also send some details over to me.
I hold CPL/IR issued by UK while still EASA member. I checked with Croatia, Malta and Norway and they all say i need to re-take all 14 exams (because I did them more than 36months ago)with EU ATO and then a skills test as well. |

To anyone who has commenced this process with any inclination of a positive outcome.
What is the process, I current have a 'frozen' ATPL with valid UK medical, SEP, MEP, MEIR in addition to FT 90% ATPL theory passes sat in 2019, AUPRT and MCCJOC (All issued by the UK/CAA) I spoke to the CAA on 07.07.2021 and was advised to try and "verify" my licence by an EASA authority which may give me the same privileges as someone holding an EASA licence? I contacted IAA, Austro, ENAC (Italy). Two of whom seemed clueless about the concept and still awaiting a response from the Italians. I understand converting/validating won't help with the lack of right to work in the EU but that isn't the concern right now. If someone could offer advice/guidance as to how I can commence the process and which NAA to contact it would be great. Any constructive advice would be greatly appreciated. I am also in the middle of a conversion process (I hold a Turkish CPL and need to have EASA ATPL soon). Try easy-pilot.com . They are pretty familiar with any kind of conversions, I think they will have an answer for you. Good luck! |
Thanks Rudestuff. That's the conclusion i have come to as well. Unfortunately I don't have the hours for ATPL yet.

Why do so many people want to convert from UK to EASA? There was a transparent conversion process which has now ended, which means surely everyone should have the licence they need?
I suspect that if and when Brits get the right to live and work in the EU it will go hand in hand with a simple conversion process. |

I wrote my UK exams middle of last year so the fact that there was a transparent process that has ended now does not help. Given that the exams are almost exactly the same, it would be nice if there was a simple process to convert to EASA, without having to write the same exams again. |

Hi joryblg, I hope you've found a solution for this now. I didn't come across this and used exams sat a under JAR, so more than 36 months ago. If you haven't found a solution, talk to the authority you are seeking to use directly.

Has anyone tried talking/emailing Balpa?

Could somebody clear this up for me? I earned my EASA licence in the UK 6 years ago. It was valid for a lifetime.
When the UK brexited - legally speaking - did EASA revoke my licence? For what reason? I still have it, I earned it 6 years ago. There are no issues with holding 2x ICAO compliant licences at the same time. Right now, the CAA are still allowing new EASA holders to obtain UK licences and take jobs in the UK. See the CAA Brexit microsite. Are my conclusions correct? Thanks. |
Your UK issued (I assume uk issued) EASA part FCL licence is now a UK part FCL licence (non EASA).
