How to

How to use custom stickers in VRChat.

Download a sticker, upload it to your account, place it on a surface. Here is each step, and the limits worth knowing before you start.
Before you start

What you need

A VRChat account with VRC+. Creating and placing custom stickers is a VRC+ feature.

A sticker file. Everything on this site is a still image with a transparent background, which is what VRChat expects: custom stickers are static images, and animated uploads are not supported.

Step by step

Download, upload, stick

1

Download the file

Open a sticker's page and press the download button. Keep the file as it is: resizing or re-saving it can lose the transparent background.

2

Upload it to VRChat

Add it as a custom sticker from your inventory in the app, or sign in on the VRChat website and upload the image there.

3

Place it

Open the Action Menu and go to Emojis & Stickers, then Stickers, then Custom Stickers. Pick yours and aim at a surface.

Good to know

The limits

These details were checked against the VRChat wiki on 9 November 2026. VRChat changes; if a menu has moved, the wiki will have the current path.

Eighteen at a time

An account holds up to 18 custom stickers. To add a nineteenth, remove one first.

One on the wall each

Each person has one sticker placed at a time. Placing another replaces your last one.

Some worlds say no

World creators can switch stickers off, or block them on particular surfaces. The menu tells you when a world has them disabled.

Outside VRChat

Using them anywhere else

A sticker is an ordinary PNG. Drop it into a chat, a stream overlay, a video thumbnail or a world of your own. Other platforms have their own size rules for stickers and emoji, so you may need to scale it down first.
