To become a Grandmaster (GM) in chess, you must achieve the following key milestones set by FIDE (the international chess federation):

Achieve a FIDE Elo rating of 2500 or higher:
At any point in your career, you need to reach this rating, even if only briefly.
Earn three Grandmaster norms:

Norms are achieved by performing at a Grandmaster level in official tournaments.
A norm requires competing in a FIDE-approved event with players from different federations, including Grandmasters.
You need to score well against highly rated opponents over at least nine games in each tournament.
Play against diverse players:
At least one-third of your opponents in norm tournaments must already be Grandmasters, and you must face players from at least two other countries.
Consistently improve your skills:

Dedicate yourself to constant practice, studying openings, middlegames, and endgames.
Play regularly in high-level tournaments and analyze your games to learn from mistakes.
Becoming a Grandmaster often requires years of focused effort, rigorous training, and competing against the best players in the world.
