+# How to uninstall the {{product}} snap
+
+This guide provides step-by-step instructions for removing the {{ product }}
+snap from your system.
+
+
+## Removing the k8s snap
+
+To uninstall the `k8s` snap, run the following command:
+
+```
+sudo snap remove k8s
+```
+
+This command uninstalls the snap but may leave some configurations and data
+files on the system.
+For a complete removal, including all cluster data, use the `--purge` option:
+
+```
+sudo snap remove k8s --purge
+```
+
+## Confirm snap removal
+
+To confirm the snap is successfully removed, check the list of installed
+snaps:
+
+```
+snap list k8s
+```
+
+This command should produce an output similar to:
+
+```
+error: no matching snaps installed
+```
