The cheapest published way to move USDT off an exchange right now is the Plasma network at CoinEx, which charges 0.00005 per withdrawal. The same network costs 0.4 at KuCoin, so the venue you withdraw from changes the bill far more than the network you pick — the coin and the route are identical, only the operator differs. Every figure below is read from each exchange's own public API rather than a marketing page, and re-read on 2026-09-08. Amounts are quoted in the coin itself, which is how the exchanges publish them, so a fee is a deduction from the amount that arrives rather than a separate charge.

Who is missing, and why
Binance, OKX, MEXC, Bybit, Coinbase, Kraken, Gate.io do not publish a per-chain USDT withdrawal fee without an account. Their screens are not a citable source, so they are named here instead of guessed. Public schedules for trading fees still live on their review pages when we have them.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the cheapest network to withdraw USDT?
- Plasma at CoinEx, at 0.00005 USDT per withdrawal on the figures each exchange publishes through its own API, re-read on 2026-09-08. Confirm it in your account before sending — a venue can change this without notice, which is why this page is rebuilt from the APIs rather than typed by hand.
- Why does the same network cost different amounts on different exchanges?
- A withdrawal fee is set by the exchange, not by the network. The chain has its own cost, but each venue decides what to charge on top and whether to subsidise it. That is why Plasma runs 0.00005 USDT at CoinEx and 0.4 USDT at KuCoin for an identical transfer.
- Which exchanges are missing from this comparison?
- Binance, OKX, MEXC, Bybit, Coinbase, Kraken, Gate.io do not publish per-chain withdrawal fees without an account, so they cannot be compared here from a public source. Their fees are visible once you are logged in. This page only states what is publicly checkable.
- Do these fees include the network cost?
- The published figure is what the exchange deducts from your withdrawal. It is not a pass-through of the live network fee, and it does not change with congestion the way an on-chain transaction does.
- If I withdraw 500 USDT, is the expensive network 500 times costlier?
- No. These deductions are flat per send. A 500 USDT transfer on the dearest published route still pays 7.5 USDT, and the cheapest published route still pays 0.00005 USDT, as of 2026-09-08.
