Where does the epicenter of an earthquake have to be in order for a tsunami to occur?

Mostly in the oceanic plate,or location which can cause the oceanic plate to crack,as the formation of a tsunami is caused by the displacement of a rock undersea,leading to violent waves that hit the shore as tsunami.

hope it helps!
