We analyzed archive images of the SWIFT trigger 1034325 (GRB 210222B,
BAT detection by Gropp et al. GCN Circ. 29545,
early optical ground observations by Fernandez-Garcia et al. GCN Circ. 
29546,
redshift by Agui Fernandez et al. GCN Circ. 29552)
with the TAROT robotic telescope (D=18cm) located
at Les Makes Observatory, Reunion Island, France.

Images were acquired without any filter, camera FLI PL16803
and Takahashi Epsilon 180ED.

According the reference star NOMAD-1 0750-0237314 R=15.43
we give the photometry of the GRB optical transient:

t1 and t2 are start and stop acquisition since the trigger.

Magnitudes are not corrected for Galactic dust extinction.
