Figma’s official rate limit rules

When you can import Figma design again

Use this as a simple rule of thumb:

• Any plan, View / Collab seat

  • Limit: up to 6 Tier 1 requests per month.

  • If you see this error after a few imports, you are likely out for the month.

  • Retry next month or ask your admin to move you to a Dev / Full seat.

• Starter, Dev / Full

  • Limit: up to 6 Tier 1 requests per month.

  • Same as above: you will usually need to wait for the next month or upgrade.

• Professional, Dev / Full

  • Limit: 10 requests per minute.

  • Wait at least 1 minute, then press Retry once.

• Organization, Dev / Full

  • Limit: 15 requests per minute.

  • Wait at least 1 minute, then press Retry once.

• Enterprise, Dev / Full

  • Limit: 20 requests per minute.

  • Wait at least 1 minute, then press Retry once.

Pressing Retry repeatedly will not bypass the limit. Always wait first, then retry one time.
