Hi Umer - In order to participate in international competition, you will need to go through your country's amateur boxing association. Usually a boxer either gets selected to be on a country's team or had to qualify through his country's advancing tournaments. You will need AIBA passbooks, and insurance, and a coach, in order to travel.
