Native or Canonical bridging can take up to 7 days with withdrawal from an layer 2 or layer 3 chain back to the origin chain. This wait time is set by the chains themselves and not something we at Relay can control.

The 7 day period will start with the prove withdrawal transaction is completed on the blockchain. Our transaction page for your bridge will reveal that prove withdrawal transaction; you can look your bridge up here: https://www.relay.link/transactions/

The 7 day wait period starts after this transaction is completed. You will receive your funds a little over 7 days after your prove withdrawal is confirmed. You will receive your funds around this time & if you don't, please reach out so that we can insure that you do.

If you have further questions, feel free to reach out to us in the live chat or at [email protected].
