# Import from seed phrase

## Supported seed phrase types

SubWallet currently supports seed phrases created from words in the [BIP-39 wordlist](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt). Supported seed phrase types include:

| Seed phrase type                | Corresponding imported account type                   |
| ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| 12-word seed phrase             | Unified account                                       |
| 15-word seed phrase<sup>1</sup> | Unified account                                       |
| 24-word seed phrase<sup>2</sup> | <ul><li>Unified account</li><li>TON account</li></ul> |

<sup>*1*</sup>*&#x20;SubWallet only supports importing 15-word seed phrases from Cardano-native wallets (Yoroi, Typhoon, Lace, etc.). After importing, SubWallet will generate a unified account for you, ensuring that its Cardano address matches the address displayed from those native wallets.*

<sup>*2*</sup>*&#x20;If you import the seed phrase created from a non-native TON wallet into SubWallet, SubWallet will generate a unified account for you. If the seed phrase is from a TON-native wallet, SubWallet will restore your existing TON account.*

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you import a seed phrase incompatible with SubWallet, you may be unable to import the account, or the imported account may not be the one you intended to import.

**Trust Wallet, Safepal, and TON-native wallets** are among the wallets that are not compatible with SubWallet.&#x20;
