Subduction zones form along some tectonic plate boundaries. Of the three general types of tectonic plate boundaries, we will see them form at some (but not all) of what are called convergent plate boundaries.

Subduction zones form at convergent plate boundaries, where one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another into the Earth's mantle. This process can lead to the formation of deep oceanic trenches and volcanic arcs.
