Adding a Multi-Engine Rating to a private, commercial, ATP, or CFI Certificate, the FAA requires an instructor endorsement and a practical test. A Knowledge Test (written) is not required. The practical test includes a detailed oral test.

Receive the necessary flight training

Completion Time & Cost
If you already hold a Commercial License it normally requires 5-8 hours of flight training (and some ground training) and costs approximately $1800-$2600. If you hold a Private Pilot's License it will normally take 10-20 hours of flight training (and some ground training) and costs approximately $3200-$6300. There is no hourly requirement for flight training in a twin, so you can take the Check Ride when you're proficient.
