The following code demonstrates how to accurately fetch the current pool creation fee in HBAR using a combination of JSON RPC and REST API. The pool creation fee is used when creating a new liquidity pool.
The fee for creating V1 liquidity pools is $50 (as of July 2026), paid in HBAR. Always fetch the current value on-chain. The exchange rate information is used to accurately determine the equivalent value in HBAR.
The pairCreateFee() function will return the current fee expressed in Tinycent (US).
