Mechuka, Arunachal Pradesh: Days, Permits and Patience It Demands

The Permit Stack You Need Before You Book Anything

Mechuka requires two separate documents, and neither can substitute for the other. The Inner Line Permit, or ILP, is mandatory for any non-Arunachali Indian citizen entering the state. It is issued online through the Arunachal Pradesh government portal or at designated offices in Guwahati, Kolkata, Delhi and Dimapur. Processing typically takes one to two working days if the online system is cooperating, which it does not always do. Carry three printed copies.
