There is no minimum staking period, there is only a 2 weeks delay if you want to unstake your coins, for the network security. Read more about it [here.](https://radixtalk.com/t/why-does-it-take-so-long-to-unstake-from-a-validator/176)  
There’s a minimum of 90 XRD for each staking request made from the wallet.

Don’t forget to leave 0.6 XRD in your wallet to request an unstake.
