Depends on the class and page style you use.
With a KOMA-script class, just use
\chapterpagestyle{empty}
(memoir might have something similar),
else, if you use pagestyle "fancy", use
\fancypagestyle{plain}{%
\fancyhf{}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}}
else, you have to redefine \chapter. E.g., for book.cls,
\renewcommand\chapter{...@openright\cleardoublepage\else\clearpage\fi
\thispagestyle{empty}%
\glob...@topnum\z@
\...@afterindentfalse
\secd...@chapter\@schapter}
