If you haven't done it, you should put your Composer's system wide vendor bin directory in your $PATH as described in the documentation here: https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/installation#installing-laravel
Then, the command is:
laravel -V

Version Laravel/Installer
Hi, i am a little bit confused about checking the version of Laravel/Installer, not Laravel/Framework. The current version should be 4. I red averall the command: laravel -V => command not found composer laravel -V => Composer version 1.10.13 composer laravel/installer -V => Composer version 1.10.13 php artisan -V => Laravel Framework 7.22.4 composer global about => Changed current directory to /home/user/.composer ... There is also a folder: /home/user/.composer/vendor/laravel/installer I did also this in the beginning: composer global require laravel/installer But how i can check the version of installer? Should be 4 ... for jetstream...

What do you get from
cat ~/.composer/composer.json
I just changed the version number in composer's composer.json then ran composer install.

"require": { "laravel/installer": "^4.0" }
It seems to be ok. But why doesn't work a command, e.g. "laravel -V", that list me the exact version?

What do you get with
ls -la ~/.composer/vendor/bin
The command
laravel -V
should show the version, if command not found then you don't have the path set correctly as @ismaile said earlier

Yes indeed. Thanks also @ismaile. Now "laravel -V" works: Laravel Installer 4.0.3
Its only nessecary to update for jetstream if i use laravel/installer? Or also if i create a laravel project via Composer Create-Project? Normally i use create project.

its only necessary to update laravel if you intend to use it
composer create-project does not use the laravel installer or even need it on your machine
