How can I get a small box at the right hand side of the document as in the figure below: 
My initial attempt failed:
begin{flushright}
begin{tcolorbox}
textbf{Date:11/12/2018}\
textbf{Time: 2:30 PM}
end{tcolorbox}
end{flushright}
Thank you.

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 thedocumentclassand the appropriate packages so that those trying to help don't have to recreate it.

You can specify the text width=3cm, or use tcbox{} along with a table:
Notes:
Theshowframepackage
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}
begin{flushright}
tcbox[left=2pt,right=2pt]{%
bfseries
begin{tabular}{@{}ll@{}}
Date: & 11/12/2018 \
Time: & 2:30 PM \
end{tabular}%
}%
end{flushright}
end{document}
