How to bridge USDT from Ethereum to Tron

1

Open L2Pass Swap

Go to swap.l2pass.com, choose USDT on Ethereum as the source and USDT on Tron as the destination, then enter the amount and set the Tron address (it starts with T) that will receive the USDT.
2

Compare the routes

Each route card shows the expected output, minimum received, estimated time and fees. Default slippage is 0.05% (editable) and does not apply to fixed-output routes such as USDT0.
3

Set a refund address

For L2Pass RFQ and L2Pass Private, set the refund address to an Ethereum wallet you control. If the swap cannot complete, your deposit is returned there.
4

Pay by wallet or deposit address

On the USDT0 route, sign the transaction in your Ethereum wallet. On L2Pass RFQ and L2Pass Private, send USDT to the one-time deposit address from your connected wallet, any Ethereum wallet or an exchange, by address or QR code. If you send from an exchange, check that the amount that arrives matches the quote, since some exchanges deduct their withdrawal fee from it.
5

Track the swap

For L2Pass RFQ and L2Pass Private, follow the status in Recent swaps: Awaiting deposit, Deposit confirmed, then Complete. A USDT0 transfer is a LayerZero message, so you can follow it on LayerZero Scan with your Ethereum transaction hash.

Things to know

  • Gas on Ethereum only. Sending ERC-20 USDT costs ETH for gas. The Tron network fee is deducted from the amount shown (1.71 USDT in test quotes on October 19, 2026), so you do not need TRX to receive. You need TRX later to move the USDT on Tron.
  • USDT0 message fee. The USDT0 route charges a LayerZero message fee in ETH on top of gas. Compare it with the RFQ amounts before you choose.
  • Refunds. On-chain routes revert (gas is not refundable). Deposit-address routes return your deposit to the refund address; provider and network fees may be deducted.
  • No partial fills. A swap completes in full or does not execute.
  • Minimum amount. Some routes have a minimum swap amount. If your amount is below it, the route is listed as unavailable with the minimum shown.
  • Compliance checks. No account or KYC is needed for regular use, though a provider may request extra checks for a specific transaction. If a provider flags a swap as high risk under AML or sanctions rules, it decides whether to complete, refund or hold it, and a refund is not guaranteed.
