How to Remove Your Bounty in Eve Online

A reoccurring search phrase that brings many people to this blog is this question....

"How do I remove my bounty in Eve Online?" or "How do I get rid of my bounty in Eve Online?"


Whilst different people Google slightly different phrases, they are all looking for the same thing. Someone has put a bounty on them and they want it removed.

Whilst many will tell you "You cannot remove a bounty", that is not 100% true. There is a way to remove that bounty and thus remove that horrible 'Wanted' tag from your in-game portrait if you want to.


How do I do this you ask? Well its rather simple and totally legit. It is not an exploit and won't get you banned for EULA violations. Its a simple use of the bounty mechanics that allows you to get rid of the bounty that someone has put on your head.

You will need a decent ship, a full cargo bay and a course plotted to the system of Nisuwa in the region of Black Rise. This system is inside low-sec so you will need to be careful getting there.

The ship you need for bounty removal depends on the size of the bounty on your head and what you can fly. A Strategic Cruiser is usually a good choice although anything expensive will do. You need to ensure that the cost of the ship is many times more than the bounty that is on your head. This can be easily achieved by using faction, deadspace or even officer modules in your fitting. If you are still not there, as a second option, you can fill your cargo bay with expensive mods and implants. Blueprints are a good choice as these can be expensive and take up little room in the cargo hold if you are struggling for space.

As a rough guide, you need the value of the ship, modules and cargo to be at the very minimum five times the value of your bounty. So if someone has put 100m ISK on your head, your fitted and filled ship needs to be valued at 500m ISK and over.

Sorted that? Good. Now you need to get to Nisuwa. I would recommend avoiding OMS, Heydieles and either side of the Rakapas/Pyne gate which are all pirate gate camp hotspots. Nourukaikan-Tama-Kedama-Nisuwa is a direct route that takes you from the 0.7 of Nourukaikan through two low-sec systems into Nisuwa.

Once there you need to warp to the sun at zero. After you have landed type the following in local:-

"I have a bounty on my head and Drackarn said if I wait at the sun in Nisuwa at 0 in an expensive ship, someone would help me remove it."

Then all you need to do is wait. You can use this time to go make a sandwich or take a long bio break. Hopefully one of the expert 'Bounty Removal Team' that live in Nisuwa, such as myself or one of the other QCats, will attend to your needs whilst you are off doing other stuff. If you have the sound on your computer turned up and can hear low shield, low armour and then low structure alarms going off, don't worry. This is all part of the bounty removal process so no need to panic. Just sit back and enjoy your sandwich.

When you finally get back to your computer you should find yourself automatically back in your home station (no need for a return journey, that's included in the service) and that pesky bounty has gone!

I hope you find this quick guide to getting rid of your bounty in Eve Online useful and please, tell all your friends.


P.S. Now update your clone!

  1. As much as would love to recommend your service, you gave some horrible advice. The Norv/Tama gate is one of the most camped high/low gates I've ever seen. They will never make it to Nisuwa going through there.

    I'm sorry because of this I'm going to have to recommend the Asakai or Hyk bounty removal operations. Just make sure to travel via Onnamon

    1. Rubbish! Those are too dangerous. Come into Hevrice. It's right next door to Raneilles, a high-sec system and thus very simple to get to. There are very rarely any gate camps here and the population is mostly made up of miners and low-sec bears. We're all friendly and will gladly remove your bounty FOR FREE.

  3. I understand the worry that some of you may have navigating low sec in an expensive ship filled with modules of inesteemable value. Fly to us even in a pod and we can contract you the necessary ship and cargo. Contracts of more than 3 billion Ism require an appointment. Due to the difficult nature of the bounty removal processing. All contracted ships and fittings priced at Nita plus 15%. Cash in advance.

  6. What is the point of avoiding a dangerous gate camp? Isn't the point to get podded to remove your bounty? Can't gankers solve that problem as well as anyone else?
