1. Search for it:

Use Search on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


2. You might have enabled screen time parental controls and disabled installing apps, this removes App store on your device


Follow this guide in reverse:

Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Make sure installing apps are set to allowed.


Good luck
