Almost all volcanoes are located along plate boundaries. The exceptions are volcanoes like Kilauea, in Hawaii. Kilauea is not located near a plate boundary. Instead, it is formed by a mantle plume. Again, this type of volcano is much, much rarer than those that form at plate boundaries.

What boudaries produces volcanoes?

Convergent boundaries produce volcanoes. Volcanoes form when an oceanic plate and a continental plate converge, causing the oceanic plate to subduct. The subduction causes a magma chamber to form which feeds the volcano when it erupts.
