Calling Landlines in Assam: Your Complete Guide 📞

Assam, a beautiful state in Northeast India, has its administrative capital in Dispur, a locality within the major city of Guwahati. Other important districts include Dibrugarh, Jorhat, and Silchar. To make a successful landline call to any of these areas, you must use the correct STD (Subscriber Trunk Dialing) code. For example, Guwahati's STD code is 0361, Dibrugarh's is 0373, and Jorhat's is 0376.  

How to Call Assam from Within India

To call an Assam landline from anywhere else in India, you must use the '0' prefix followed by the specific STD code for the district you're dialing.

  • Dialing format: 0 + STD Code + Local Landline Number

For instance, to call a landline in Guwahati, you would dial: 0-361-XXXXXXX. The '0' is crucial for connecting your call to a different STD code area within India.

How to Call Assam from Outside India

When calling Assam from a foreign country, you do not use the '0' prefix. Instead, you need to use the international access code for your country, followed by India's country code, the STD code, and the local number.

Dialing format: +91 + STD Code + Local Landline Number  

For example, to call a landline in Dibrugarh from outside India, you would dial: +91-373-XXXXXXX. The '+' symbol is a universal replacement for your country's international access code, and '91' is the country code for all of India. Â
