XRP transfers can require both an address and a destination tag. Treat the tag as part of the receiving instructions whenever a service provides one.

Address rules
Classic XRP Ledger addresses commonly begin with r. Some wallets or services use an X-address format that can encode a destination tag.
Fee mechanism
XRP Ledger transaction fees are paid in XRP. The receiving account can also have ledger reserve requirements controlled by the wallet or service.
