Depends on how it's attached.

Some bikes have the kick stand either bolted or clamped to the chain stays, just behind the bottom bracket - in which case you just undo the bolt and it'll come right off. You might need a socket wrench or a big Allen key to get to it.

Other bikes have the stand clamped/bolted to the left rear dropout.

If that's the case, you need to undo both the bolts on the stand, and often also the left side wheel axle nut to get the stand back on.

Then there are some bikes, Townies and Cruisers that might have the stand actually welded to the frame. In this case, they have to be cut out. Usually not worth the effort.

Then there are stands that just clamp around one of the chain stays. These are fairly pointless, as they tend to rotate if used whenever the bike is loaded. But they'll unscrew fairly easily.
