Sometimes you need to transfer USDT from Binance to another platform or your own wallet — this is known as "withdrawing." The process isn't complicated, but there are a few critical points to watch, especially the network selection — choosing the wrong one could mean losing your coins. Don't have a Binance account yet? Register on Binance first, then download the Binance APP to get started.
Before Withdrawing
- Make sure you've completed identity verification
- Confirm the withdrawal address is correct (copy it from the destination wallet)
- USDT needs to be in the Funding Account (transfer from Spot Account if needed)
Step-by-Step Withdrawal Process
Step 1: Go to the Withdrawal Page
Open the Binance APP, tap "Assets" then "Withdraw," and search for and select USDT.
Step 2: Enter the Withdrawal Address
Paste the destination wallet address into the "Address" field. Never type it manually — always copy and paste. One wrong character and your coins are gone.
Step 3: Select the Transfer Network
This is the most critical step. USDT supports multiple networks:
- TRC20 (TRON): Lowest fees, around 1 USDT, relatively fast arrival
- ERC20 (Ethereum): Higher fees, potentially over ten dollars during congestion
- BEP20 (BSC): Low fees, fast speed
- Other networks: Such as Solana, Polygon, etc.
Important: The network you select must match the network supported by the receiving wallet! For example, if the recipient only supports TRC20 but you send via ERC20, the coins may be irretrievable.
Step 4: Enter the Amount
Enter the amount of USDT you want to withdraw. The page will show the fee and actual amount to be received.
Step 5: Confirm and Verify
After confirming everything is correct, submit. The system will require security verification, such as email code, SMS code, Google Authenticator code, etc.
How Long Until It Arrives?
Arrival times vary by network:
| Network | Typical Arrival Time |
|---|---|
| TRC20 | 1-5 minutes |
| ERC20 | 5-30 minutes |
| BEP20 | 1-5 minutes |
During network congestion, it may take longer.
FAQ
Withdrawal Shows "Under Review"
Large withdrawals or first-time withdrawals to new addresses may require manual review, usually processed within a few hours.
Coins Arrived but Balance Hasn't Changed?
Check whether the receiving platform requires a certain number of network confirmations. Some platforms need dozens of block confirmations before showing the balance.
Can I Cancel a Withdrawal?
If the status is still "Processing," you can try to cancel. Once it's been broadcast to the blockchain, it cannot be canceled.
