Start here:

Airmen Certification - Verify the Authenticity of a Foreign License, Rating, or Medical Certification

Once that is done make sure you that you meet the requirements for a commercial certificate listed here:

Electronic Code of Federal Regulations:

and Bingo!! commercial certificate in your pocket.

As a side note the required training can be conducted by a non FAA certificated instructor but the last 3 hours and the endorsement for the check ride has to be done by an FAA instructor.
