What is the meaning of the AFM/ACM/AIM chess title?
You'd have to ask FIDE what they had in mind when they came up with this stuff.
Lichess doesn't recognize these.

In case you were wondering what A in for example AFM stands for, it's Arena. So AFM = Arena FIDE Master.
You need only 1400 online rating to get arena AFM (1700 for AIM) and (2000 for AGM) and (1100 to get ACM) Its just a way for fide to get some more money probably. Its just ridiculous cause these titles do not have any real recognition.
What is the procedure to validate a FIDE title lichess?
Please see lichess.org/faq#titles
Thank you very much for this information.I have one more question:what is this arena?If its possible, send me link :).
It's the "official" FIDE server, basically the most official at all.
Ok, but witch is it?
It's just FIDE's way of taking money from people who are obsessed with titles.
