  • Welcome to TeX.SE. While code snippets are useful in explanations, it is always best to compose a fully compilable MWE that illustrates the problem including the documentclass and the appropriate packages so that those trying to help don't have to recreate it.

You can specify the text width=3cm:



enter image description here



Notes:





  • The showframe package
    was used just to show the page margins.
    It is not needed in your actual use case.


Code:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{showframe}
usepackage{tcolorbox}

begin{document}

begin{flushright}
begin{tcolorbox}[text width=3cm]
textbf{Date:11/12/2018}\
textbf{Time: 2:30 PM}
end{tcolorbox}
end{flushright}
end{document}
