TNT (magazine)

TNT is a weekly, free magazine published in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.

The UK magazine started in 1983 by Ali & Ghadir Razuki, and was the first magazine to reach readers via distribution bins in key areas across London. It was also available from pubs, hostels, travel agents and, later, internet cafes. The Australian and New Zealand versions follow the same distribution methods.

In the UK, TNT is aimed at Australians, New Zealanders and South Africans living, working and travelling in the UK (though mostly in London). In Australia, the magazine is for British, Irish, European and, increasingly, North American travellers. The magazines focus on travel, jobs, tips on living in London (UK mag) and Australasia (Australia + New Zealand), accommodation and news and sport from home. TNT UK also publishes a guide to the UK and Ireland for Australians, New Zealanders and South Africans planning to move to the UK and Ireland. TNT Downunder produces a similar annual title targeting those wanting to travel (and in many cases move) to Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. TNT Multimedia, which owns the UK magazine, also owns South African Times and South African Times.co.uk, and brings out quarterly teaching and finance directories, among other ad-hoc supplements.

The website TNTMagazine.com is linked to the UK magazine, and was relaunched in October 2008 after existing under various other urls. There is also TNT Jobs - a standalone jobs board which offers jobs in the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

TNT also runs regular travel and recruitment exhibitions for its readers, as well as an annual travel writing and photography awards competition.
