How do the unstaking options compare?
| Unstaking option | Access to SOL | Conditions and limits |
|---|---|---|
| Whole-balance standard unstaking | An epoch-based wait, followed by a separate withdrawal. | Below 2 SOL, select Max for the full balance. Splitting cannot leave two stake accounts containing at least 1 SOL each. |
| Whole-balance Instant Unstake | Immediate access when the instant-unstaking transaction completes. | The fee ranges from 0.5% to 3%, depending on available liquidity. Review the displayed charge before confirming. |
| Partial unstaking through a split | The new stake account can use standard unstaking or Instant Unstake, with the corresponding wait or fee. | For stake accounts above 2 SOL, retain at least 1 SOL in the original account. The new split account must also receive at least 1 SOL. |
| Solflare recommends keeping 0.01 to 0.05 SOL available for typical transaction and account costs. This amount is a recommended buffer, not a fixed unstaking charge. | ||

When is SOL available after standard unstaking?
Standard unstaking follows the Solana epoch cycle, which determines the waiting period before withdrawal. The selected stake account shows a "Time to unstake" estimate after entering the unstaking status. Once that wait ends, you can select Withdraw in the wallet and confirm the transaction. The SOL returns to your main wallet balance after the withdrawal completes.
