Forms cannot be submitted unless all required fields have been answered, with the exception of questions that are hidden with conditional logic. When your forms have multiple pages, users can’t go to the next page until all visible, required fields on the current page are answered.

To change whether a question is required or not, go to ‘Configure’ to the right of the question field and toggle "Question is required" on/off.

Questions will keep their required setting at all times, but if a question is not visible, then it won't be required.
How do I insert page breaks and section breaks (pagination & question branching)?
Use breaks to divide a form into either pages or sections that can be shown conditionally based on responses.
