As long as you're creating Site Page (modern page), you will have the Search Bar.
If it is a Wiki Page or Web Part page (which are classic pages), you won't be getting the Search Bar.

Thanks.

@KrunalRohit  yes. usually the search bar only appear for site page. However I see a site. Whatever wiki page, web part page , or site page, it has the search bar all along. Do you know how can I do it also?

@fishscience It is by design only. However, you can customize it by using SharePoint PnP PowerShell extensions.
Please refer this for more info - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftsearch/manage-spo-search-box

@KrunalRohit Thank you! It is very helpful.
