# Unstake sDOT

To unstake your sDOT, click **Unstake** on the staking panel on the right hand side, and input the sDOT amount you wish to unstake. Click **Preview Order** to see the DOT amount to be claimed.

The amount of sDOT unstaked will be equal to the amount of DOT to be claimed after unbonding ends, minus the Transaction Fee which is collected to pay for relay-chain and parachain fees. Click **Confirm Unstake** and confirm the MetaMask transaction.

After the sDOT unstake is done, you will see the updated staked DOT (sDOT) balance and **Pending DOT**. You can come back and claim DOT after 30 days.
