Tkʼemlúps te Secwépemc (Shuswap pronunciation: [tkʼəmˈlups tə səˈxʷɛpəmx]), abbreviated TteS and previously known as the Kamloops Indian Band, is a First Nations government within the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council, which represents ten of the seventeen Secwepemc band governments, all in the southern Central Interior region, spanning the Thompson and Shuswap districts. It is one of the largest of the 17 groups into which the Secwepemc (Shuswap) nation was divided when the Colony of British Columbia established an Indian reserve system in the 1860s.

The Chief of TteS is referred to as the Kúkpi7.
