Reject an airdrop

The TokenRejectTransaction allows users to reject and return unwanted airdrops to the treasury account without incurring custom fees. This transaction type supports rejecting the full balance of fungible tokens or individual NFT serial numbers with support for up to 10 token rejections in a single transaction. Rejection is not supported if the token has been frozen or paused. Note that the transaction does not dissociate an account from the token. For dissociation, one must perform a TokenDissociateTransaction.

Important Notes:

  • When a token is rejected, used_auto_associations is not decremented. This field tracks the total number of auto-associations made, not the current number of token types associated with the account.

  • The receiver_sig_required setting is ignored on the treasury account when handling a TokenReject. Rejection will always proceed without custom fees.

  • Token rejection is not supported if the token is frozen or paused.

Transaction Signing Requirements

  • The key of the account rejecting the tokens

  • The transaction fee payer account key

Transaction Fees

  • Please see the transaction and query fees table for the base transaction fee.

  • Please use the Hedera fee estimator to estimate the cost of your transaction fee.
