# Permissionless Token Import

## Overview

On [Demex](https://app.dem.exchange/), anyone can import tokens from supported chains permissionlessly. This gives the community a say in which tokens they want to see listed or removed on the platform.

## Step-by-Step Guide

**Step 1:** To get to the 'Import Tokens' feature, go to the [Markets](https://app.dem.exchange/markets) page on Demex and select the 'Import Token' option.

**Step 3:** Once you have chosen a blockchain, you can easily locate the token contract address by selecting the 'View Tokens' button. This will direct you to the block explorer of the blockchain.

{% hint style="success" %}
That's it! Your token has been permissionlessly imported. You can now make a deposit using this token and [create a market](/community/permissionless-listings/permissionless-market-creation.md) for it.
{% endhint %}

## Import Error

It is not possible to import a token that is already available on Demex. Please search for the token on the [Wallet Balance ](https://app.dem.exchange/account/balance)page.
