Forgot password of ipad
Presumably you refer to your iPad Passcode...
A forgotten or unknown iPhone/iPad passcode cannot be recovered - and neither can it be reset or modified from another device. If you see a waiting period you can wait and try again to input the correct Passcode; otherwise, the iPad must be restored.

Hi jansel80,
Unfortunately, the passcode lock cannot be bypassed, as it would defeat the purpose of the lock. I advise you to create a backup in case you get locked out.
If you mean the carrier lock, you will need to contact your previous carrier to remove the carrier lock.
See here: How to unlock your iPhone for use with a different carrier
If you mean that you forgot the SIM PIN, you will need to contact your carrier and obtain a PUK code. If an alert says "PUK Exhausted", you will need a new SIM card.
See here: Use a SIM PIN for your iPhone or iPad
If you had iCloud enabled, you may still be able to access data through another Apple device or iCloud.com.
Good luck!
