Hello Nadim
Before applying for commercial pilot license you must qualify its eligibility criteria.
Eligibility Criteria
Commercial pilot applicants must be at least 18 years old, be able to read, speak, write and understand English, and hold at least a private pilot certificate.
Next step is to get a 2nd class medical certificate. Since you must have a private pilot certificate to begin commercial training, the chances are good that you already hold an aviation medical certificate. If it's a 3rd Class medical, you may want to get a 2nd Class medical certificate. You'll need atleast a 2nd Class medical certificate to utilize your commercial pilot privileges.
Next just like with the private pilot certificate, you'll want to get the written exam out of the way early in your commercial pilot training. That way, you'll have the extra knowledge in your head already, and it will also serve as a refresher if you've taken some time off. Once your written exam is completed, you can focus on flying.
After that a commercial pilot applicant needs to demonstrate proficiency, but also needs to have some experience. To obtain a commercial pilot certificate under CFR Part 61, you'll need at least 250 flight hours, including 100 hours of pilot-in-command time and 50 hours of cross-country flight. Also, you'll need to get at least 10 hours of instrument training and 10 hours in a complex aircraft.
At last once you've mastered the commercial flight maneuvers to the new standards and learned all about the privileges and limitations of the commercial pilot certificate, your instructor will sign you off for the checkride. Since you've taken checkrides before, you know what to expect: a couple of hours of groundwork for the verbal portion of the exam and a quick flight is all it takes. And after that you will definitely get your license.
Best of luck
