# Exporting and Importing a Wallet Using a Passphrase
## Exporting an Account From Fearless Wallet
If you'd like to export your passphrase, you can do it in several ways:\
\
1\. [Whole Account (without **Unique Secret**)](#whole-account)\
2\. [Account with **Unique Secret** (from the **Wallet** tab)](#account-with-unique-secret-from-the-wallet-tab)\
3\. [Account with **Unique Secret** (from the **Settings** tab)](#account-with-unique-secret-from-the-settings-tab)
{% hint style="info" %}
Options **2** & **3** don't have any "techincal" difference between each other, the only thing that differs is the **menu tab** you access your passphrase from. So, you're welcome to use the one you find the most convenient.
{% endhint %}
### **Whole Account**
If you haven't taken advantage of the new [**Unique Secret** ](https://wiki.fearlesswallet.io/accounts/walkthrough/unique-secrets)feature, please do the following:\
\
1\. Click on the **Wallet** tab & then on then on the "bird" icon in the top left corner:\
\
2\. Click on the **three dots** next to your wallet name:\
\
3\. And finally, on **Export wallet,** then **Continue** → **Export**\
\
\
\
4\. Select **Mnemonic passphrase,** write down the 12-word phrase and keep it safely\
\
### **Account with Unique Secret (from the Wallet tab)**

\
1\. Go to the **Wallets** tab & click on the network you'd like to export: \
\
2\. Then click on the **three dots** in the top right corner & select the **Export account** option:\
\
\
\
3\. Select **Mnemonic passphrase** and keep your 12 words safely:\
\
### Account with Unique Secret (from the Settings tab)

\
3\. Select the **Export account** option, then click on **Mnemonic passphrase** and keep your 12 words safely:\
\
That's it! You've just successfully exported your account!
### Importing to Polkadot.js
To import your wallet to Polkadot.js, open the [**Polkadot.js extension**](https://polkadot.js.org/extension/) in your browser
Click on **Import account from pre-existing seed**, as shown below
Finally, input your seed phrase
## Importing an Account to Fearless Wallet
Unfortunately, Polkadot.js does not allow you to export your passphrase once you've created your wallet. (*More info* [*here*](https://support.polkadot.network/support/solutions/articles/65000169731-how-can-i-view-my-mnemonic-seed-on-the-polkadot-js-webapp-and-extension-)). If you haven't saved your seed phrase, you will have to export the JSON file. Have a look at the next tutorial to learn how to import using a JSON file!
If you have already saved your passphrase, open the Fearless Wallet app and click on **Settings** and then **Wallets**\
\
\
\
Then click on the **Add wallet** button and select the "**I already have a wallet"** option
Select the correct **Source type** from the drop down menu to use while importing your account.
If you're importing your wallet using the Mnemonic passphrase, you'll have to choose a name for your account in the Fearless Wallet app.
Instead, **if you're using a JSON file, you'll also have to type the password** you used to protect that wallet on the Polkadot.js extension!
