# Remove Import

> Revoke an import record from your instance

Revokes the import. The record stops being active, the token disappears from [List Imports](/endpoints/tokenization/list-imports), and the slot it held against the 200 import limit is freed.

## Path Parameters

<ParamField path="tokenAddress" type="string" required>The imported contract address.</ParamField>

## Response Fields

<ResponseField name="data" type="object">
  <Expandable>
    <ResponseField name="removed" type="boolean">Always `true` on success.</ResponseField>
  </Expandable>
</ResponseField>

## What removal does not do

Nothing on chain changes. Trusset never held the token, so there is nothing to return and no transaction to sign.

<Warning>
  A lending market already deployed against this token keeps running. It reads the chain and its own market record, neither of which is the import. Loans stay open, collateral stays locked, and liquidation still works.

  What removal does block is a new deployment: [Deploy Market](/endpoints/lending/deploy-market) refuses a token that is not an active import, with `TOKEN_NOT_IMPORTED`. Removing an import is therefore a way to stop new markets, not a way to unwind existing ones.
</Warning>

<Note>
  Removal is a revocation, not a deletion. Importing the same address again creates a fresh active record, and the chain-read fields are detected from scratch at that point.
