yes, you just need the commercial pilots' license and a medical certificate. Depending on your nationality and where you would like to be a professional pilot, you also might need a work permit.

You also need an English language proficiency of at least ICAO level 4; This includes the correct conjugation of verbs and the use of prepositions of place.

To become a pilot you just need a medical certificate, a Commercial Pilot Licence, with all the additional ratings: Multi Engine Rating, Instrumental Rating, Night Rating and not to forget to pass all the ATPL subjects by sitting the exams.
After that, NETWORKING NETWORKING NETWORKING! Make yourself to be known with good attitude and behaviour.
