USDT TRC20 fee calculator
Updated 1 November 2026. Figures checked on TRON mainnet transactions and network parameters.
Short answer
A USDT transfer on TRON costs the same whether you send 100 or 1,000 USDT: without energy the network burns 6.43 TRX, or 13.03 TRX if the recipient has never held USDT. Paste a public address below to see what it actually burned over the last 7 days.
| Transfers a month | Network burns | With rented energy at our price |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | 64 TRX ($21) | 25 TRX ($8.30) |
| 100 | 643 TRX ($213) | 251 TRX ($83) |
| 1,000 | 6,428 TRX ($2,127) | 2,510 TRX ($830) |
How the fee is calculated
A transfer uses 64,285 energy, or 130,285 for a recipient without USDT. Without energy the network burns TRX at 100 sun per unit, which gives the two figures above. Bandwidth is separate: the first transfer of the day usually fits the free allowance, and after that it costs about 0.345 TRX.
What the calculator does
It reads the address's transactions from TronGrid, adds up the TRX actually burned over 7 days and compares that with energy at our price. It needs only the public address: no wallet connection or signature. If the result is close to zero, the address already has energy or sent no USDT.
Rule of thumb for your wallet
Keep at least 6.43 TRX for a normal transfer and 13.03 TRX for a recipient without USDT, or put energy on the address first. An exchange charges its own withdrawal fee instead: see the table.
