/tp <location>
/tp <targets> <location>

Arguments

ArgumentWhat it does
<targets> The player or entity to move. Leave it out and you are the one teleported.
<location> Destination coordinates as x y z. A tilde means a relative position: ~ ~10 ~ moves you 10 blocks up.
facing The direction or entity to face after teleporting.

Examples

/tp 100 70 -240

Teleports you to these coordinates.

/tp ~ ~50 ~

Moves you 50 blocks above where you are.

/tp Faruk @s

Pulls Faruk over to you.

/execute in the_nether run tp @s ~ ~ ~

Sends you to the matching spot in the Nether: X and Z are divided by 8.

Good to know

  • tp and teleport are the same command.
  • For teleporting between dimensions, use the execute in ... run tp pattern.
  • A teleported entity keeps its falling speed: Teleport it from high up and it takes damage.

How do I run this command?

Press T in game to open chat (or press / directly), type the command and press Enter. While typing, Tab completes the options. This command counts as a cheat: It needs cheats enabled in a singleplayer world, and operator permission on a server (operator (level 2)).
