Numbers 5:16-18 King James Version (KJV)
16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the Lord:
17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water:
18 And the priest shall set the woman before the Lord, and uncover the woman's head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which is the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse:

Why would a woman's veil need to be removed in this ceremony?

she was disgraced until proven innocent.

For if a woman does not cover her head,
let her also have her hair cut off
But if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off
Or her head shaved
Let her cover her head
