Bhutan Immigration Office – Weekend Timing Latest Update

Planning a trip to the Land of Happiness? Here’s great news for Indian travelers! The Bhutan Immigration Office in Phuentsholing is now open 7 days a week – including Saturdays and Sundays.

Earlier, the Bhutan Immigration Office at Phuentsholing remained closed on weekends, which often caused delays for travelers arriving on Saturdays or Sundays.

But now, post-COVID, the office is open 7 days a week – including weekends! This makes Bhutan travel more convenient and flexible for tourists, especially those joining fixed group tours or weekend getaways.

Why This Matters:

No More Waiting for Weekdays: No need to wait till Monday for your permit – ideal for working professionals or families with limited time off.
Smooth Permit Processing Every Day: Indian citizens require an Entry Permit to travel beyond Phuentsholing into Bhutan (Thimphu, Paro, Punakha, etc.) if travelling from Bagdogra airport. With Immigration Office open daily, you won’t have to delay your plans due to weekends or holidays.
Fixed group tour Made Easier: At Dooars Bhutan Tours & Travels, we can now plan Fixed group tours or Private transfers on weekends more efficiently, allowing our guests to make the most of their short holidays without worrying about permit delays.
