Teleportation could be stealthy, not featuring vacuum booms from the The Air Not There or using Instant Runes. It could be just utterly undetectable, except for someone disappearing and re-apppearing somewhere else.
However, that looks boring. In addition, it would give a massive edge to teleporters and make them harder to fight against, as they could swiftly change their locations and ambush their targets with ease.
To improve aesthetics and narration (and game balance), teleportation can be given audible or visual effects. They may happen upon activation of teleportation or upon arrival at the destination. Effects may include flashes of light, booms of vacuum, smoke screens, and similar phenomena.
It also gives the audience an audible or visual shorthand to show that teleportation indeed happened, making it clearer why the character moved from one place to another. For live-action TV and movies, flash effects also help cover any minor differences in the scene if the teleportation is being done via Stop Trick.
Sub-Trope of Teleportation with Drawbacks due to having a drawback in the area of "Stealth". The Opposite Trope to Stealthy Teleportation, for when disappearance is the only sign of teleportation.
Sometimes occurs with Weaponized Teleportation, if the effect is weaponizable.
Compare Cool Gate and Thinking Up Portals when it involves warp portals, and One to Million to One when it involves "breaking off and reassembling somewhere else". Compare Smoke Out when the characters use smoke to run away, giving the illusion that they "teleported".

Magic 2.0: Zigzagged. While the very basic teleportation is instantaneous and has no visual or auditory cues, most wizards prefer to add sound or visual effects. For example, Phillip at one point uses the transporter effect from the Star Trek: The Original Series, also keeping himself and Martin immobile until the glow dissipates. In book 2, Martin copies Nightcrawler's teleportation visuals and sound and uses the word "bamf" to trigger it.

Wonder Woman (1942): Paula's Space Transformer makes a blinding flash and a muted explosive sound when teleporting someone. When a couple of Holliday College students who were not in the know about the teleportation device happened across it and messed around, the girl who accidentally sent her friend to Venus was found inconsolably sobbing as she thought she'd blown her friend up. (Of course, normally being beamed to Venus would be just as fatal, but, well, comic books.)

The Mighty Thor: Villainess Enchantress seems to have two modes of teleporting. Depending on the Writer, there might be Unsound Effects:
Casual and subdued, departing without much fanfare, then appearing in a similar manner a short-ish distance away, but it's slow.
Rapid, long-distance: It involves an elaborate arm wave, with a flashbulb effect for her departure, and not much stealth at her destination.

X-Men Nightcrawler's signature *BAMF* effect when he disappears. The purple smoke is apparently the matter of the dimension he travels through when he teleports. There's also apparently a sulphur smell that accompanies it in-universe.

In the Classic and X series, the playable characters enter the stages through a single beam of light falling from the sky, which then "morphs" into the character in the question. When they exit the stage, they turn into a beam of light shooting upward.

Bravestarr: Teleportation is one of the myriad of powers that Eldritch Abomination Stampede granted to his second in command, Tex Hex. In keeping with the ghostly theme of Tex Hex, the power takes the form of Tex Hex either fading away or Stealthy Teleportation disappearing. Admittedly it'd be stealthier if he wasn't a Large Ham who insists on laughing maniacally or throwing out taunts and vows of revenge when he did so.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983): Orko's teleportation as if he was being intentionally theatric, for example:
Left a location by pulling his body into his hat and then making the hat disappear, then reappearing by using a disembodied hand to appear and draw his signature "O" from his shirt before materializing.
He's disappeared by folding himself up like a card trick.

Dungeon Keeper Ami: It relates to the type of magic the teleporter uses:
Keeper Teleportation has different effects on arrival and departure. Arrival's effects are described before departure's:
Arrival: Implied in "So Hungry", has a Fade In effect, shown when Ami presumably uses Keeper Teleportation, her only fast teleportation method, and is described as "fading into view":
Departure: as shown in "Seizing Heart Number 3" has the sound of a vacuum being filled in at the departure point:
Metallian Teleportation: As seen in "Catastrophic Failure, Part 1", it reflects their Elemental Powers:
Shock and Awe Lishika gets electricity.
Casting a Shadow Umbra darkens the area.
Dishing Out Dirt Tiger gets "scattering pebbles".

Lemmings Revolution, a 2001 Continuity Reboot, had vertical teleporters with a spiral design and blinding light that would transport them to the other side. Unlike Lemmings 3D, there was no limit on how many lemmings could enter. In-Universe, the Lemmings had no idea where the teleporters would take them, due to the teleporters making them Blinded by the Light.

Power Rangers:
The Rangers regularly teleport during its early seasons - Morphin' and Zeo had a column of Ranger-colorcoded light (non-Rangers teleport in white) while Turbo and Space had a sphere of Ranger-colorcoded energy appear above the teleport-ee and sort of spray a cone of light down around them, and then the sphere would whisk away, the cone becoming sort of a trail. Meanwhile, across the franchise, villains always teleport, usually with a unique effect down to Rule of Cool instead of anything meant to suggest that a Star Trek-like machine is responsible. (For example, King Mondo from Zeo had a truly epic lights show heralding his entrance, while Ransik from Time Force has his giant face appear for a moment. Even villains in the same season will have radically different effects, as if teleportation is simply the most common ability in the grab-bag of powers every villain has.)
The Neo-Saban seasons make it more consistent for villains, where it's a function of their ships, bases, or other technology, so the effect is simpler, and the same for all who use it within a series (though sometimes more important villains get a different color from Mooks or the Monster of the Week.) It's still flashier than, say, Star Trek.

Honkai Impact 3rd
The boss character "Herrscher of the Void", whenever she teleports, she's accompanied by either an expanding or shrinking black-and-orange sphere.
The Olenyeva Twins' short distance teleports involve them "sinking" into bright light on the ground (akin to their shadows), then moving it to another place before jumping out of it again.

Pathfinder: The spell ice crystal teleport (from Ultimate Magic) causes a creature to become encased in ice over the course of a few turns, then fade away as they're teleported to the caster's home. As a means of transport it's Cool, but Inefficient, since it's available later than the standard teleport spell and removes some of its options (like teleporting to less-familiar places or transporting multiple creatures at once). Unlike teleport, however, it can be used against unwilling targets and doesn't require the caster to make physical contact.

Dungeons & Dragons has several options:
In the edition 3.5 supplement Complete Mage, the Cloudy Conjuration feat lets you accompany your conjuration spells (a category that includes teleportation and Summon Magic) with a poof of noxious smoke, sickening nearby creatures for 1 round. Creatures summoned by the spell are unaffected.
From Tome of Battle – Book of Nine Swords, the Desert Wind discipline includes the Leaping Flame supernatural maneuver, which allows to disappear in a burst of flame and smoke when attacked, certainly confusing opponents about what actually happened.
The 5th edition Thunder Step spell, which allows Weaponized Teleportation, unleashes a damaging Gale-Force Sound as the caster disappears.

There's also a similar electric anomaly when Jack gets dumped back into the Noid World. For no clear reason, Jack always appears some distance off the ground, and must drop from a height onto the world's surface. The electric storm is so pronounced that two of Jack's nosy neighbors come to check on him.

The BioShock series: How all teleportation that is seen, works, with puffs of smoke and flashes of light on appearing and disappearing:
Houdini Splicers, who appear and disappear in puffs of smoke and flashes of light, Fiery red, or Icy blue, depending on their element.
BioShock 2: There's an Unstable Teleport plasmid that needs to be used multiple times, and leads to the player to an otherwise inaccessible location. Its teleports of itself and the player are red smoke and light.

The Star Trek franchise:
Teleportation done via machines called "transporters" has a sparkly effect and a ringing sound. Different factions have different effects, though it changes from series to series. One thing that's pretty consistent is that Starfleet transporter effects are yellow in the Original Series era and blue elsewhere. Also consistent in the first five series is that a small sphere of sparkly energy will usually linger in the center of where the transport-ee was.
Star Trek: The Next Generation: Downplayed with the Jerkass Q's teleportation, having a minimal "whoosh" effect and a flash of white light:
Once, Q appeared on the bridge with a Mariachi band to celebrate getting his Reality Warper powers back; the band was noisy and showy, while Q retained his woosh.
At his least flashy, Q appeared in the Captain's ready room after a narrow crisis in Engineering:
Also downplayed in season 3 of Star Trek: Discovery, which takes place in the 32nd century. Personal transporters do have a flash of light, but it's quicker and quieter than with the transporters of the 23rd and 24th centuries.
Played straight with the Discovery's own spore drive effect, which works similar to teleporation. Blue lightning bolts appear all around the ship, then the ship rapidly spins on its long axis and whooshes away up or down. It's most prominent in a scene which involves a Teleport Spam against a Klingon flagship.
Also also downplayed in Star Trek: Picard with static transporters that act as doorways across the planet. People simply enter a frame with a glowing rectangle underneath and come out halfway around the world.

Runescape: Teleportation effects from each school of magic and most magic items produce a distinct visual display as the Player Character disappears. For example:
A basic teleport causes them to vanish into a Pillar of Light.

Wonder Woman:
Wonder Woman (1942): Paula's Space Transformer makes a blinding flash and a muted explosive sound when teleporting someone. When a couple of Holliday College students who were not in the know about the teleportation device happened across it and messed around, the girl who accidentally sent her friend to Venus was found inconsolably sobbing as she thought she'd blown her friend up. (Of course, normally being beamed to Venus would be just as fatal, but, well, comic books.)
In Judgment In Infinity, a puff of smoke and a flash of light burst around Zatanna and Diana when they are magically transported from the Watchtower to Calcutta.

In the Zero series, Zero usually uses a teleportation device (whether on-site or from his base) to go in or out of stages. Whenever Zero goes in, a bunch of white squares appear and coalesce, and then he appears out of them. When Zero goes out, the same white squares appear and envelop him before he disappears. Most other robot characters teleport the same way X-series characters did. Both of these ways of teleportation are retained in ZX series.

Princess Glimmer, who could pop around the battlefield in flashes of light, as befits her light-based powers.
Shadow Weaver had the option of either disappearing and reappearing in a ball of fire or a shadowy haze depending on her mood.
Madame Razz normally favored her companion Broom for transport but, as demonstrated in "Welcome Back Kowl", could appear with a shower of sparkles if she so chose.
The konseal Loo-Kee could also teleport by vanishing and reappearing in a small display of sparkles and a quietly tinkling bell. Given his ability was to remain undetected and no one else noticed the sparkles manifesting, its up for grabs whether this was done more for the audiences' collective benefit or not.

In Doctor Who, whenever the Doctor's Time Machine, known as the TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimensions in Space), appears or disappears, it makes a grinding noise. Behind the scenes this is done by scraping a key along piano strings. One episode reveals that the only reason it's happening is because the Doctor has, essentially, left the parking brake on.

Heaven's Vault: With light-orb effects. Through the use of "hoppers" in this game, these short-ranged teleporters are often used to visit moons where the Nightingale can't land. Others were set up to facilitate passage through physical gates that were never meant to be opened the old-fashioned way. It's eventually revealed that hopper technology doesn't actually seem to have any range restrictions. It's just that nobody knows anymore how to make full use of the few ones that're still active after centuries without maintenance.

Dragon Ball:
Instant Transmission, a teleportation technique that looks like the character's image is being ripped to shreds, with Speed Lines. Goku learns it from a race called the Yardrats, though he can only teleport to places where there are people with ki to lock onto. This means his effective limit is his limit for sensing ki. But given that Goku can simply skip into the Spirit Realm to extend his range, basically, if there's life (or afterlife), Goku can go there.
In Dragon Ball Z: The Return of Cooler, Cooler and Goku both know it, leading to a brief clash of Teleport Spam.
Cell learns it after coming back from a single cell.
Because Goku Black copied all of Goku's moveset, he can perform the Instant Transmission. Goku learned this the hard way when he thought he had an advantage over Goku Black during their second battle.
The Tournament of Power introduces Jimeze, a member of the Yardrat race and master of Instant Transmission. However, Frieza points out that his teleportation pattern is predictable and Frieza is fast enough to catch up to him even when he teleports, resulting in Jimeze easily being defeated.

The Masters of the Universe franchise has multiple teleporters that do it flashily:
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983): Orko's teleportation as if he was being intentionally theatric, for example:
Left a location by pulling his body into his hat and then making the hat disappear, then reappearing by using a disembodied hand to appear and draw his signature "O" from his shirt before materializing.
He's disappeared by folding himself up like a card trick.
She-Ra: Princess of Power: Multiple characters teleport like this:
Princess Glimmer, who could pop around the battlefield in flashes of light, as befits her light-based powers.
Shadow Weaver had the option of either disappearing and reappearing in a ball of fire or a shadowy haze depending on her mood.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (2002): King Hsss used Destructive Teleportation in a One to Million to One manner, by separating into a bunch of green energy snakes that scattered along the ground in different directions, only to reconvene almost instantly at the desired target location with a very prominent hissing sound.

In the original Doom, whenever a character or creature teleports, there is a burst of yellow/green energy at the origin and destination sites.

Mega Man:
In the Classic and X series, the playable characters enter the stages through a single beam of light falling from the sky, which then "morphs" into the character in the question. When they exit the stage, they turn into a beam of light shooting upward.
In the Zero series, Zero usually uses a teleportation device (whether on-site or from his base) to go in or out of stages. Whenever Zero goes in, a bunch of white squares appear and coalesce, and then he appears out of them. When Zero goes out, the same white squares appear and envelop him before he disappears. Most other robot characters teleport the same way X-series characters did. Both of these ways of teleportation are retained in ZX series.

Charmed (1998): Whitelighters, and half-Whitelighters like Paige or Wyatt, have the ability to "Orb" which involves the person, and anyone they're taking with them, dissolving into a cloud of white-blue lights with a chiming noise playing when they leave or enter. Cupids have a similar ability called "Beaming" where they turn into a ball of pink light (which forms over their heart) in order to travel.

Terraria: Cell Phone teleportation back home, creates a blue flash of sparkles at the departure and arrival point, after a slight delay while the Cell Phone emits lesser sparkles.

Rock and Rule has the struggling Ohmtown music group visit the palatial home of the legendary rocker Mok. While they're being screened by the brutish Schlepper brothers, Mok teleports into the room. It's a dazzling lights and cracking electrics show. "Anyone want a beer?" Notably, while Mok is pitching his charms to Angel in his private garden, he can teleport silently as well. The first instance was done just to showboat.

Star Trek: The Next Generation: Downplayed with the Jerkass Q's teleportation, having a minimal "whoosh" effect and a flash of white light:
Once, Q appeared on the bridge with a Mariachi band to celebrate getting his Reality Warper powers back; the band was noisy and showy, while Q retained his woosh.
At his least flashy, Q appeared in the Captain's ready room after a narrow crisis in Engineering:
