Of course there are no visible screws! If there were, burglars could break into every home by carrying only a screwdriver lol! 😎
Look at the side view of the assembly - you can see 2 hexagonal openings. These are for allen wrenches. You'll have to search for the size that fits. It appears that there is engraving with the name of the lock assembly company. I would contact them directly (attach your photos for their reference) to get specific instructions as well as the size allen wrench you need. Good luck!

Most of these have screws that are concealed to keep the burglars out and you safe.
The plate is probably covering the screws. Here's a link with more information:

The screws are behind the lock knob, on the inside. Think of this as a decorative/protective cover. I tried to write out the steps but wikihow has a better set of instructions. Here's the link if you are interested:

Deb K video is correct. The cover plate on the inside pops right off with a screwdriver revealing the screws.
Call in a Locksmith, he should be able to do it for you!
You can remove the doorknob by removing the steel plate on the part of the door where the deadbolt is located. You wouldn't want screws on the doorknob itself or it could be removed by those with an ulterior motive.
On the other side there is a turn key lock there are 2 screws take them out then pull apart
First the protective plate is not part of the lock. the person installed the lock with 2 nails in the screw holes in the lock. find a pry bar to get them out to remove the lock then you can remove the protective plate that helps to prevent burglars. As my dad says KISS "keep it simple stupid" over thinking makes for a mess go back to basics where would screws normally be? This area has nail heads solve that problem first then move on!!
