CASA instrument rating renewal in Europe
Anyone know where I can renew my CASA instrument rating in Europe.
Do we have any CASA approved testing officers living in any European country?
I need to renew my IR, but am trying to avoid a trip back to Aussie, just for that.

Is it out of date? If so, by how long?

Yes it's out of date.
Expired in 2006
It's been expired more than twelve months, check the regs, you are going to have to do an initial issue, IREX exam and all....

I stand corrected, been removed in the 2013 ammendment I now see, sorry. (Reading that mess I'm glad I don't have to worry about it any more)

If it is more than 12 months post expiration, then I don't have any easy advice for you. Not saying it is not possible, just outside the bounds of my knowledge of how to renew an IR overseas. Good luck!
There was never a repeat IREX requirement.
I won't post the entire section here, but read part 12A of CAO 40.2.1. It refers to renewal using an oversear flight simulator training provider. A trip back to Aus may actually be easier.

Australia does not give a dam what you are doing anywhere else in the world,
spend a few years overseas and you are faced with doing another "Initial instrument rating" ride but, the good news, or bad news, is you don't have to to the written exam again.
Practically, the person doing the test wants to see you pass what is required and nothing more. An initial issue is where they want to see a bit of stress and fatigue that occurs after an hour or so...
When I return to Aus, I'll do that "initial" again at a place where it can all be done in minimum time.

It won't be useful for any operators in Australia to only have a VOR endorsed on your ME-CIR, but it at least keeps your ME-CIR current which some overseas licensing authorities require.
Apart from my Aust ATPL, I hold two other ICAO licenses from various countries (Indonesia and China) and neither of them have listed the type of navaids the pilot is endorsed on in the instrument rating section of license. I dare say the FAA license is the same as both these countries have copied the FAA system of licensing.
