# NFT Burn Process

```
// NOT Intended for general use 

```

> The `NFTokenBurn` transaction is used to remove a `NFToken` object from the `NFTokenPage` in which it is being held, effectively removing the token from the ledger (*burning* it).

Reference: <https://xrpl.org/nftokenburn.html>

Resource: <https://xrpl.services/tools>

Requirements;

* Must be NFT Owner

Or

* if the `NFToken` has the `lsfBurnable` flag enabled
  * can be the issuer
  * or the issuer's authorized [`NFTokenMinter` ](https://xrpl.org/nftoken-authorized-minting.html)account instead

1. Sign in to XRPL.Services with the account that owns the NFT

Navigate to *XRPL Tools > Raw JSON Transactions > NFTokenBurn Template*

Update the field values to match the requirements of your transaction as follows;

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="131"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Field</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td><code>Account</code></td><td><em>(Required)</em> The unique address of the <a href="https://xrpl.org/accounts.html">account</a> initiating the transaction.</td></tr><tr><td>Owner</td><td>Optional) The owner of the NFToken to burn. Only used if that owner is different than the account sending this transaction.</td></tr><tr><td>NFTokenID</td><td><em>(Required)</em> The NFToken to be removed by this transaction.</td></tr></tbody></table>

N.B. The "Sequence" and "Fee" fields are not present since XUMM will take care of this!
