Minecraft /tp command
Java EditionBedrock EditionSince Alpha v1.0.16 (as /tp)
Quick answer: Teleports a player or entity to coordinates or to another entity. Syntax:
/tp <target> <x> <y> <z>/tp (alias of /teleport) instantly moves players or entities to exact coordinates, or to another entity's position. Coordinates can be absolute, relative (~) or, in Java Edition, local (^) based on where the target faces.
Syntax
| Edition | Syntax |
|---|---|
| Java | /tp <target> <x> <y> <z> |
| Bedrock | /tp <victim: target> <destination: x y z> |
Targets / arguments: @s, @p, @a, @r, @e or a player name; coordinates x y z. Requires: Cheats enabled / operator level 2.
Examples
/tp @s 100 64 -250Teleport yourself to x=100, y=64, z=-250
/tp @p SteveTeleport the nearest player to Steve
/tp @s ~ ~50 ~Teleport yourself 50 blocks straight up
Tips
- Use ~ before a number for relative movement from the current position.
- Teleporting to unloaded chunks loads them; very high y values can cause fall damage on arrival.
- In Java Edition /teleport and /tp are the same command.
