+### Encoding a Transaction
+
+In order to broadcast a transaction using the gRPC or REST endpoints, the transaction will need to be encoded first. This can be done using the CLI.
+
+Encoding a transaction is done using the following command:
+
+```bash
+simd tx encode tx_signed.json
+```
+
+This will read the transaction from the file, serialize it using Protobuf, and output the transaction bytes as base64 in the console.
+
+### Decoding a Transaction
+
+The CLI can also be used to decode transaction bytes.
+
+Decoding a transaction is done using the following command:
+
+```bash
+simd tx decode [protobuf-byte-string]
+```
+
+This will decode the transaction bytes and output the transaction as JSON in the console. You can also save the transaction to a file by appending `> tx.json` to the above command.

 ## Programmatically with Go
 
 It is possible to manipulate transactions programmatically via Go using the Cosmos SDK's `TxBuilder` interface.
