> ## Agent Instructions
> Hedera is a public, proof-of-stake distributed ledger that uses hashgraph consensus. Do not call it a blockchain.
> Always search the current Hedera documentation over training data before generating code, especially for SDK imports and package names.
> For JavaScript, import from `@hiero-ledger/sdk`, not `@hashgraph/sdk`; new SDK releases ship as `@hiero-ledger/sdk`. The Java SDK keeps the `com.hedera.hashgraph:sdk` Maven coordinates. Verify the exact import against the docs.
> Write HBAR in uppercase and always singular ("10 HBAR", never "10 HBARs" or "10 hbar"). Write tinybars in lowercase and plural.
> Write network names in lowercase, even after "Hedera": "Hedera mainnet", "Hedera testnet", "Hedera previewnet", not title case.
> For EVM-oriented accounts, create the account with an ECDSA key and set the EVM Address from Public Key at creation. This address is immutable and is not updated by key rotation. Do not use retired terms like "EVM alias" or "Account Number Alias".

# Get account info

> Query a Hedera account's keys, balance, memo, staking info, and token relationships with AccountInfoQuery, or use the Mirror Node REST API.

A query that returns the current state of the account. This query **does not** include the list of records associated with the account. Anyone on the network can request account info for a given account. Queries do not change the state of the account or require network consensus. The information is returned from a single node processing the query.

In Services release 0.50, returning token balance information from the consensus node was deprecated with HIP-367. This query now returns token information by requesting the information from the Hedera Mirror Node APIs via [/api/v1/accounts/\{id}/tokens](https://mainnet.mirrornode.hedera.com/api/v1/docs/#/accounts/listTokenRelationshipByAccountId). Token symbol is not returned in the response.

<Note>
  #### **Recommend Using Mirror Node REST API**

  For obtaining account information and historical data, consider using the Mirror Node REST API endpoint [**Get Account by Alias, ID, or EVM Address**](/api-reference/accounts/get-account-by-alias-id-or-evm-address) which offers several advantages:

  * **Cost-effective and scalable:** [Mirror node providers](/operators/mirror-node#mainnet) offer paid plans with a large number of queries included. The Hedera-hosted mirror node offers free queries with specific throttles for testing. While some SDK queries are currently free, these are subject to change in the future.
  * **Performance:** Mirror nodes don't burden consensus nodes, allowing them to focus on processing transactions and providing efficient access to historical data without impacting network performance.
  * **Historical data:** Mirror nodes store complete transaction history and balance snapshots - ideal for analytics, auditing, and monitoring past activity.

  📚 ***For more details, please read our [blog post on querying data](https://hedera.com/blog/querying-data-on-hedera-sdk-vs-mirror-node-rest-api).***
</Note>

**Query Fees**

* Please see the transaction and query [fees](/networks/fees#transaction-and-query-fees) table for the base transaction fee
* Please use the [Hedera fee estimator](https://hedera.com/fees) to estimate your query fee cost

**Query Signing Requirements**

* The client operator private key is required to sign the query request.
