BNB Chain gas fee now
BNB Chain prices computation in gas. Fee = gas used × gas price, paid in BNB. A plain BNB transfer uses 21,000 gas — the fixed cost of a transaction in the Ethereum Yellow Paper (G_transaction). A token transfer such as USDT runs the token contract's code and uses roughly three times as much; the exact figure is measured per token by simulating a transfer.

Questions and answers
How is the BNB Chain gas fee calculated?
Gas used × gas price. A plain BNB transfer uses 21,000 gas; a token transfer uses what the token contract needs. The gas price is read from the network every few minutes and shown above in gwei (1 gwei = 0.000000001 BNB).
Why does sending a token on BNB Chain cost more than sending BNB?
A token transfer calls the token's smart contract, which reads and writes its balance table. That code costs gas on top of the 21,000 every transaction pays, so the same gas price gives a higher fee.
Does the amount I send change the BNB Chain fee?
No. Gas measures computation, not value. Sending 10 or 10,000 of a token costs the same gas.
What does a BNB Chain transfer cost right now?
At the last reading a USDT transfer cost 0.000002477 BNB, about $0.0015 at $618 per BNB. The figure on this page is re-read every few minutes; this answer is as of the moment the page was built.
