# Signature.toRecoveredBytes

:::info
`Signature.toRecoveredBytes` is a re-export of ox's [`Signature.toRecoveredBytes`](https://oxlib.sh/api/Signature/toRecoveredBytes). Refer to the ox documentation for the full reference.
:::

Encodes a [`Signature.Signature`](/docs/utilities/signature/types#signature) as a 65-byte recovered byte representation (`yParity ++ r ++ s`, big-endian).

## Imports

```ts
import { Signature } from 'viem/utils'
```

## Examples

```ts twoslash
// @noErrors
import { Signature } from 'viem/utils'

const bytes = Signature.toRecoveredBytes({
  r: '0x6e100a352ec6ad1b70802290e18aeed190704973570f3b8ed42cb9808e2ea6bf',
  s: '0x4a90a229a244495b41890987806fcbd2d5d23fc0dbe5f5256c2613c039d76db8',
  yParity: 1
})
// @log: Uint8Array [1, 110, 16, ...] // 65 bytes
```

## Definition

function toRecoveredBytes(
  signature: Signature,
): Bytes.Bytes
