If the Contacts app isn't on the home screen (including not in a home screen folder), be aware that Apps that can be removed from the home screen without being deleted. Go to the App Library (swipe left past your last home screen). From there you can touch and hold an app and slide it left back to the home screen.


Also, you can use search to find the Contacts app. See: Use Search on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


If the Contacts app was deleted, see the following from Delete built-in Apple apps from the Home Screen on your iOS 14 or later or iPadOS device or Apple Watch - Apple Support
