They have to go in through the front and will need to use a plunger/suction cup to lift off the screen. There’s a possibility that a screen protector comes in the way and they have to take it off.

Thanks for responding!

I'm not bothered about replacing the screen protector if if needs to be removed. That's easy.

The skin is a different story, as it takes more time and effort to line it up properly so both the charging port and screws are uncovered...

But if the skin doesn't need to be removed, then great!

It depends on the skin and how much it covers. They do need to apply heat to remove the glue and this might affect the skin. Take a look here for a XR teardown. Apple may take the skin off if it makes it easier for them but you can always ask them to avoid that if at all possible.
