Minecraft’s /tp and /teleport commands can move players and other entities to coordinates or to another target. The exact syntax can vary between Java Edition, Bedrock Edition, and servers that use plugins, so it helps to understand the basic target and destination structure first.

Minecraft Teleport Command Syntax

In Bedrock Edition, /tp is an alias for /teleport. Common command patterns include teleporting a target to coordinates or teleporting one target to another entity.

Teleport Yourself to Coordinates

/tp @s 100 64 200

This teleports the command executor to X 100, Y 64, Z 200.

Teleport One Player to Another Player

/tp Steve Alex

This teleports Steve to Alex. Replace the names with the players you want to use.

Teleport a Player to Coordinates

/tp Steve 100 64 200

This moves the named player to the specified X, Y, and Z coordinates.

Teleport All Players to Your Location

/tp @a @s

The @a selector targets all players, while @s means the entity executing the command.

Teleport the Nearest Player

/tp @p 100 64 200

The @p selector targets the nearest player to the command’s execution point.

Teleport a Random Player

/tp @r 100 64 200

The @r selector targets a random player.

Useful Minecraft Target Selectors

  • @a means all players
  • @e means all entities
  • @p means the nearest player
  • @r means a random player
  • @s means the entity executing the command

How to Find Coordinates

On Java Edition, players commonly use the debug screen to view coordinates. On Bedrock Edition, coordinates can be shown through world settings or other interface options. Once you know the X, Y, and Z values, enter them in the teleport command separated by spaces.

Essentials Server Teleport Commands

Servers running Essentials or a similar plugin can add convenience commands beyond vanilla Minecraft. Availability and permissions depend on the server configuration. These are some common examples.

  • /tpa playername requests a teleport to another player
  • /tpahere playername requests that another player teleport to you
  • /tpaccept accepts a teleport request
  • /tpdeny denies a teleport request
  • /tptoggle enables or disables incoming teleport requests
  • /tphere playername teleports another player to you when permitted
  • /tpall teleports multiple or all players when your permissions allow it

For current Bedrock command syntax, Microsoft maintains an official teleport command reference.
