Currently the ENS Manager App only supports wrapping/unwrapping for .eth second-level names (like name.eth
). For other names, there are guides below you can follow to unwrap.
Note that you can only unwrap a name if it hasn't been Locked. Or in other words, if you have not revoked the permission to unwrap it.
Using the Manager App
If your name is a .eth second-level name like name.eth
, then you can use the ENS Manager App to unwrap it.
Go to the More tab on your name, and there will be a Unwrap Name button in the Token section:
Then the Manager App will open a dialog and send the appropriate transaction to your wallet to approve:
Using Unwrap Tool
This is a small helper website we built on the side to address some edge-cases that may not make sense for the ENS Manager App (or are still on the roadmap): https://tools.ens.domains/unwrap
Enter the name you want to unwrap and it will automatically send the correct transaction to your wallet.
Using the contract directly
If you want to invoke the unwrap contract methods directly, then follow the instructions in this section. The actual method to call will be different depending on whether it's a .eth second-level name, or any other name.
For .eth 2LDs
You will need:
The labelhash for your .eth name, in hexadecimal format. See here for instructions: Generating a Labelhash
Example: If your name is
name.eth
, then you will calculate the labelhash forname
.

controller: The manager of the name. Enter your address.
Then click on "Write" to send the transaction to your wallet.
For any other name
You will need:
The namehash for the parent name, in hexadecimal format. See here for instructions: Generating a Namehash
Example: If your name is
sub.name.eth
, then you will calculate the namehash forname.eth
.Example: If your name is
domain.xyz
, then you will calculate the namehash forxyz
.
The labelhash for your name, in hexadecimal format. See here for instructions: Generating a Labelhash
Example: If your name is
sub.name.eth
, then you will calculate the labelhash forsub
.Example: If your name is
