Spend 1–2 days in Dibrugarh to see the tea gardens, Brahmaputra riverbank and a few temples; then head east to Arunachal or south to Jorhat.

Dibrugarh is the tea‑city of Upper Assam on the Brahmaputra. Its sights are compact, so a short stay covers the riverbank, a temple walk and a tea‑garden visit. Use a night here before moving on to nearby regions.

Rules in force · 6
  • South Asia ↗Trekking regions, border districts and several Indian states need separate permits on top of the visa; check the permit before you book transport into them.
  • South Asia ↗Remove shoes (and in many Jain and Hindu temples, leather) before entering; cover shoulders and legs; ask before photographing people or rituals.
  • India ↗Apply for the e-visa only on the official government portal (indianvisaonline.gov.in); lookalike sites charge extra. Check the current rules, fees and how far ahead to apply.
  • India ↗Do not follow anyone who says your hotel is closed, the station ticket office is closed or a road is shut; use the prepaid taxi counter, the metro or an app car.
  • India ↗Carry Indian rupees in small notes (10, 20, 50, 100); change for 500 is often refused.
  • India ↗Parts of the Northeast, Sikkim, Ladakh, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and all border belts need a Protected or Restricted Area Permit or an Inner Line Permit for foreigners; check before you book the route.

Entry rules depend on your passport. Full visa guide

Safety

Dibrugarh is a low-crime tea and river town; the real risks are monsoon flooding and washed-out riverside roads (Jun–Sep), long unlit stretches on the DTP dyke after dark, and the inner-line permit rule if you cross into Arunachal Pradesh without one.
  • Monsoon floods can close riverside roads (check)
  • Inner‑line permit required for travel into Arunachal Pradesh from Dibrugarh (check)
