Does the apple id have to be the one that set up the iPhone for the first time set

I purchased my 11 yrs old daughter a iPhone 12 and she cannot remember her Apple ID password so I can reset the phone then sell for an upgrade. I purchased the phone with my debit card through cricket and have proof of that purchase and I need to know how to reset the password



iPhone 12, iOS 15

Tell her to check her web browser autofill entries, the Keychain, and other records, or use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you're the unit's original owner and have encountered the activation lock, click here and submit an unlock request.
