Swap POL from Polygon to USDT on Ethereum. Native POL leaves Polygon. Tether USDT is what can arrive on Ethereum. The gas coin on chain id 137 becomes Tether on chain id 1.
Spend 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE. Receive 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7. There is no approval of the gas label. Polygonscan shows the POL debit. Etherscan shows Tether. Leave POL for the fee or the send cannot start. How cross-chain bridges work explains why the gas coin does not keep its name.
Tether, not Circle, is the credit
Wrapped POL is invisible to this quote

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap POL from Polygon to USDT on Ethereum?
Spend 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE. Receive 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.
Will Etherscan show POL?
No. POL stays a Polygon concept. Etherscan should show Tether at 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7. Polygonscan shows the native debit of 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, which means POL on chain id 137. The same label on Ethereum would mean ETH, and this route does not buy that. Look for Tether on the destination, not a POL balance.
Can I approve POL like an ERC-20?
No. The gas label has no contract to approve. If a pop-up asks you to approve 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, you are not on this route. Polygonscan should show a native transfer. Keep a POL remainder so the fee can be paid. There is no allowance on the native gas label.
What if the exchange asked for ERC-20 USDT?
Ethereum Tether at 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7 is an ERC-20, so the asset type can match, but the deposit network must say Ethereum. A Polygon deposit address will not see this credit. Etherscan is the check, and you still need ETH to transfer it onward. Match the network name on that deposit page.
