Sister has just got a samsung galaxy A52 S and is wondering if there is a way to turn off the pin requirement before turning off the phone
there is a lot of guides on how to hard reset the phone but can find a guide on how to actually turn off this pin requirement
Can anyone help?

Welcome to Android Central! You most likely would have to completely remove the PIN screen lock security. Did your sister get this phone brand new or used? Are you saying that she didn't set this PIN up herself?

I believe it's a standard security feature that cannot be disabled, it prevents someone from powering the phone off if they steal it which allows the owner to track it.
