Withdrawing SOL from a centralised exchange fails for two reasons, and only one of them is about money. As of 05 September 2026 we poll every exchange we cover for its SOL withdrawal fee and, separately, for whether that route is open at all — because a route that is closed costs nothing and delivers nothing.
Pick the Network First, the Exchange Second
SOL is native to Solana, and the withdrawal network you want is Solana itself. Exchanges label it differently — you will see SOL, Solana, or Solana (SOL) on the withdrawal screen, and those are the same network under three names. Our table normalises all of them to SOL.
What is not the same network is a wrapped representation of SOL issued on another chain. Several exchanges list those too. They are different assets with different contracts, and sending one to a Solana address is how funds get lost. If the withdrawal screen offers a network you did not expect, stop and read it rather than picking the cheapest.
What Each Exchange Charges
The table below is our own measurement, from our polling of exchange endpoints. It shows the cheapest route per exchange that passes two filters: the fee is above zero, and withdrawals on that route were open at the last poll. A fee of exactly zero is excluded because it almost always means "this exchange does not publish the number", not "free".
| Exchange | Network | Fee | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| MEXC | SOL | 0.000037 SOL | Withdraw |
| OKX | SOL | 0.00023 SOL | Withdraw |
| Bybit | SOL | 0.001 SOL | Withdraw |
| Binance | SOL | 0.001 SOL | Withdraw |
| Gate.io | SOL | 0.00239 SOL | Withdraw |
| Bitget | SOL | 0.006 SOL | Withdraw |
| KuCoin | SOL | 0.008 SOL | Withdraw |
| BingX | SOL | 0.01 SOL | Withdraw |
| BitMart | SOL | 0.04909987 SOL |
An exchange missing from that table has either closed SOL withdrawals or published no fee — the absence is information too. The same data across every coin we track lives in the withdrawal fees section, and the Solana-specific view with trending tokens and listings sits on the Solana page.
The Failure Nobody Warns About: A Closed Route
Exchanges suspend withdrawal networks. Sometimes for maintenance, sometimes during congestion, sometimes for reasons they never state. When that happens, the fee is still displayed on their side, the withdrawal form still exists, and the transaction simply does not go through — or worse, sits pending for hours.
We track this separately from fees, because they answer different questions. "How much does it cost" and "can I do it at all" are not the same, and only the second one determines whether a paper gain is realisable. Our table is a snapshot, not a live feed: treat it as the answer to the cost question, and confirm the route status on the exchange itself immediately before you send.
Before You Send: Four Checks
- Address format. A Solana address is base58 and case-sensitive. Copy it, never type it, and verify the first and last four characters after pasting.
- Network match. The exchange's selected network and your wallet's chain must be the same. A wallet on a different chain will not show funds sent over Solana, and there is no undo.
- Minimum withdrawal. Below the exchange's minimum the request is rejected outright.
- Route status. Check that withdrawals are open for SOL on that exchange right now, not that they were last week.
Why This Article Sits in the Meme Coins Section
Because moving SOL to a wallet is the step between "I bought a meme token idea" and "I can act on it". Every Solana meme token trades against SOL, and every terminal in this section needs SOL in a wallet you control. The withdrawal fee is a fixed cost on the whole activity, and on small positions it is not a rounding error.
Methodology
Withdrawal fees and network availability come from our own polling of exchange endpoints. The cheapest route per exchange is computed by the same service that powers our fees section, queried directly for the Solana network rather than filtered afterwards — asking for the wrong network first is how an exchange disappears from a table while its route is open. Fees of exactly zero and closed routes are excluded rather than shown as bargains. Sources and licence: our data page. Last reviewed 05 September 2026.
