Have a look at this :- https://handbook.fide.com/chapter/B01Regulations2017
fide rating of over 2200
Here are main methods :
2200+ FIDE RATING
Or,
Win, or come in the top 3 of big events.
These should be classical / standardplay, and are :
World / Europe Schools ( Juniors )
World Junior Champs
Europe Jnrs Champs + World
If these follow a strict thing of 9 countries, with each with at least 3 players, top 3 spots sometimes can grant a CM title.
The US Chess Champs for juniors award variety of titles as well for the winners.
There are events, but these are the main for Juniors.

In short, you need to win FIDE rated OTB tournaments.
To know how exactly, read: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIDE_titles#Open_titles
And @)DERG_CHESS has already confirmed his title verification at Lichess by filling form attaching proof of the same.
@CHlivelylemon ahhh that explains why sometimes you'll see a CM with like 1700 Lichess rating.
So they win a Junior title and then just stop getting better.
Seems like a bad loop hole but whatever.
just git good.
When the 100 Euro comes to FIDE the title will come to you.
