Minecraft Bedrock Teleport Command: /tp Examples & Safe Targets

Open controller inputs →

Teleport yourself in Minecraft Bedrock

Use /tp @s 100 70 200 to send the player entering the command to the example coordinates X=100, Y=70, Z=200. Replace those numbers with a destination you have checked. They are an example, not a promise that the terrain in your world is safe. Microsoft's Bedrock documentation confirms that /tp is an alias for /teleport and requires cheats and appropriate permission.

Choose the right target

• @s means the entity executing the command. When you enter it as a player in chat, that is you.
• @p means the nearest living player to the execution origin. In a command block, that may be somebody else.
• @a selects all online players. Avoid it when you only want to move yourself.

To teleport one player to another, use /tp PlayerOne PlayerTwo, replacing both placeholders with actual player names. The first is moved to the second; reversing them reverses the action. Names containing spaces need the game's appropriate quoting.

Relative coordinates and blocked destinations

/tp @s ~ ~5 ~ moves you five blocks above the execution position. A tilde with no number keeps that coordinate unchanged. Moving upwards can still lead to falling, so use a test world. Bedrock also accepts /tp @s 100 70 200 true: the final Boolean asks it to reject a destination occupied by blocks. This check does not prove the ground, surroundings or landing are harmless.

A careful first test

1. Copy your world if you want a separate experiment.
2. Record your current coordinates so you can return.
3. Choose a visible destination with enough room.
4. Use a single-player target and verify who moved.
5. Only then adapt the command for a server or command block.

Why the command fails

If the command is unavailable, check cheats and operator permissions. If the target is missing, check the name or selector. If Bedrock reports a syntax error, remove optional arguments and try the simplest form. Command-block execution changes the origin and meaning of some selectors; do not assume a chat example will target the same player there.

This page verifies Bedrock syntax. It does not establish every Java Edition optional argument. See enabling Bedrock commands and giving items for related help.
