Hi,
A type rating is a regulating agency's certification of an aeroplane pilot to fly a certain aircraft type that requires additional training beyond the scope of the initial license and aircraft class training.
A type rating is required for any aircraft over 12,500 lbs MGTOW and/or with a turbojet powerplant. There are also ratings for operating privileges.
