<Aside type="danger" title="Warning — funds at risk">
  Minting and sending messages can move funds. Scope: your wallet and the target jetton contracts.
  Rollback: on-chain transfers are final; rotate keys if a mnemonic leaks. Do first (testnet):
  use a test wallet and testnet RPC before mainnet.
</Aside>

In order to mint new jettons, that particular Jetton must be mintable. Otherwise, it's impossible.
Next, only mintable Jettons are considered.

Minting is not a specified operation in any of the existing TEPs.
Its implementation is left to the developer's choice.
The following `typescript` code example is based on the minting implementation in
[Notcoin jetton minter contract](https://github.com/OpenBuilders/notcoin-contract/blob/main/contracts/jetton-minter.fc).
This example contains a manual assembly of all the necessary messages and is useful for studying their possible structure.

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
import { Address, beginCell, internal, toNano } from "@ton/core";
import { TonClient, WalletContractV4 } from "@ton/ton";
import { mnemonicToPrivateKey } from "@ton/crypto";

async function main() {
    const jettonMasterAddress = Address.parse('<JETTON_MASTER_ADDR>');
    const receiverAddress = Address.parse('<RECEIVER_ADDR>');
    const destinationAddress = Address.parse('<WALLET_ADDR>');

    // let's add some forward_payload
    const forwardPayload = beginCell()
        .storeUint(0, 32) // 0 opcode means we have a comment
        .storeStringTail('Mint')
        .endCell();

    // Forming the master message
    // internal transfer is also unspecified by the standard, but there is a suggested format in TEP 0074
    const masterMessage = beginCell()
        .storeUint(0x178d4519, 32) // opcode for jetton transfer-internal
        .storeUint(0, 64) // query id
        .storeCoins(toNano(5)) // jetton amount, amount * 10^9. That is an amount we want to mint
        .storeAddress(jettonMasterAddress) // from_address. For minting could be any. The Jetton wallet will check from context that the sender is the Jetton master contract and accept the transfer.
        .storeAddress(destinationAddress) // response destination
        .storeCoins(toNano('0.02')) // forward_ton_amount - if >0, will send notification message
        .storeBit(1) // either forward_payload
        .storeRef(forwardPayload) // we have forward_payload, store it as a reference
        .endCell();

    // forming the mint message
    const mintMessageBody = beginCell()
        .storeUint(0x642b7d07, 32) // opcode for mint
        .storeUint(0, 64) // query id
        .storeAddress(receiverAddress) // the user's regular wallet address
        .storeCoins(toNano(0.1)) // Toncoin intended to user's Jetton wallet
        .storeRef(masterMessage) // internal transfer message
        .endCell();

    const mintMessage = internal({
        to: jettonMasterAddress,
        value: toNano('0.1'),
        bounce: true,
        body: mintMessageBody
    });

    // connect to your regular wallet
    const client = new TonClient({
    endpoint: 'https://toncenter.com/api/v2/jsonRPC',
    });
    const provider = client.provider(destinationAddress);

    const MNEMONIC = process.env.MNEMONIC;
    if (!MNEMONIC) throw new Error("Set MNEMONIC to a test mnemonic (testnet).");
    const keyPair = await mnemonicToPrivateKey(MNEMONIC.split(" "));
    const walletContract = WalletContractV4.create({
        workchain: 0,
        publicKey: keyPair.publicKey,
    });

    // send the mint message through your wallet
    const seqno = await walletContract.getSeqno(provider);
    await walletContract.sendTransfer(provider, {
        seqno: seqno,
        secretKey: keyPair.secretKey,
        messages: [
            mintMessage,
        ],
        });
}

void main();
```

However, there is an [SDK](https://github.com/ton-community/assets-sdk) that allows you to avoid manually creating all the necessary messages.
An example of how it can be used to send the mint message is provided below:

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light-default","dark":"dark-plus"},"languages":{"custom":["/resources/grammars/tolk.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tlb.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/fift.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/tasm.tmLanguage.json","/resources/grammars/func.tmLanguage.json"]}}
import { Address } from '@ton/core';

import { AssetsSDK, PinataStorageParams, createApi, createSender, importKey } from "@ton-community/assets-sdk";

async function main() {
    const NETWORK = 'testnet';
    const api = await createApi(NETWORK);

    const keyPair = await importKey(process.env.MNEMONIC!);
    const sender = await createSender('highload-v2', keyPair, api);

    const storage: PinataStorageParams = {
        pinataApiKey: process.env.PINATA_API_KEY!,
        pinataSecretKey: process.env.PINATA_SECRET!,
    };

    const sdk = AssetsSDK.create({
        api: api,
        storage: storage,
        sender: sender,
    });

    const JETTON_ADDRESS = Address.parse('MY_JETTON_ADDRESS');
    const jetton = sdk.openJetton(JETTON_ADDRESS);

    const RECEIVER_ADDRESS = Address.parse('RECEIVER_ADDRESS');
    await jetton.sendMint(sender, RECEIVER_ADDRESS, 1200000n);
}

void main();
```

Finally, you can use web services as [TON MINTER](https://minter.ton.org/) and avoid writing code, just follow the guides.
