Record Type change is a critical operation that messes everything up. Potentially you're looking at new page layout (incl required/readonly fields), new picklist dependencies... There's reason why you select it first before any layout is displayed. And why record type change is a special button, not a field visible on normal edit action.

If you know what you're doing, are confident the requirements won't change / you'll know how to represent the changed layouts, picklists etc...

  1. Use getObjectInfo to pull (among others) the Map of record types.
  2. Use this data to build lightning-combobox that onchange updates a helper variable (you'd ideally have that variable bound to <lightning-record-edit-form record-id={recordId} record-type-id={recordTypeId}
  3. Have a custom handleSubmit in the record-edit-form in which you'd intercept the save, prepopulate the field and then submit.
