You just have to get a license. Some countries' football organizations organize special coaching camps, you pass one -> you gain a certificate -> you get through next one -> you gain a higher level certificate -> ....... -> you may call yourself fully licensed coach.

But the title itself doesn't make one a football coach. In my opinion (one of a few american football coaches in Poland), an appearing coach ought to play some football, one should know the great feeling of being knocked-down and have some practice on the field to be able to understand players' practical problems.

Answering your question -> It depends on where do you plan to work, different employers have different requirements; but to just be a football coach you just have to practice, practice, practice and.... practice, even without being paid.... Oh, and you have to practice and practice. Did I say you need to practice a lot?

You need some leadership training and it significantly helps if youre a former player, but overall you just need to have charisma and great knowledge for the game. No specific requirements of note.
