Answer
As of January 01, 2021 licenses and certificates issued by UK are no longer valid in EASA Member States and are treated as a third country licences and certificates. As of that date the holder of a UK issued licence must apply for its conversion in accordance with Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2020/723. The conversion process will require you to undertake additional training, theoretical and flight examination again.
