5 Things to Remember About the Roth IRA 5-Year Rule: https://bit.ly/3KcMcSZ

Principal withdrawals are allowed at any age without tax or penalty, because contributions to Roth accounts are already taxed.
However, converted principal (converted from a traditional taxable IRA to a Roth IRA) is subject to the 5-year rule, and if withdrawn before age 59½, a 10% penalty may apply.
Each Roth conversion starts a new 5-year clock.
Earnings also follow the 5-year rule, and you must be age 59½ or meet another qualifying exception for tax-free treatment.
For withdrawals, IRS ordering rules apply: First principal, then converted principal, then earnings.
