How to bypass censorship and connect to Tor from different countries or regions
In some countries, Internet service providers or national firewalls block direct access to the Tor network. Tor Browser includes built-in support for bridges and other circumvention tools, but in censored regions you may still need to select or request a bridge to connect successfully. This page offers country-specific guidance on getting Tor Browser connected when access is censored.
中国
Below are reliable ways to obtain Tor Browser and connect from within China.
1. 安全获取 Tor 浏览器
如需获取更新版本的 Tor 浏览器,请先尝试 Telegram 机器人:@gettor_bot。 如果不起作用,可以发送邮件至 gettor@torproject.org,并根据相应的操作系统,在邮件主题上写明“Windows”、“Macos”或“linux”操作系统。
2. 首先尝试连接助手
安装后,Tor 浏览器将尝试连接 Tor 网络。 如果所在地屏蔽了 Tor,链接助手将试图通过网桥或者 Snowflake 连接。 但是如果这样也无法连接,第二步是获得在中国可以使用的网桥。
3. 在中国有效的网桥选项
在中国,有以下选项可以解除对 Tor 的屏蔽:
- WebTunnel: makes the traffic look like a regular HTTPS connection to a webpage server giving the impression that the user is simply browsing the web. 要获取 WebTunnel 网桥,请访问我们的网桥网站。 From the "Advanced options" select "WebTunnel", from the dropdown, as the pluggable transport. 然后点击“获取网桥”。 只有 Tor 浏览器桌面版和 Android 版支持 WebTunnel 网桥。
- Snowflake: uses ephemeral proxies to connect to the Tor network. 它可以在 Tor 浏览器和其他由 Tor 驱动的应用程序中使用,如Orbot。 您可以从 Tor 浏览器的内置网桥菜单中选择 Snowflake。

Private and unlisted obfs4 bridges: contact our Telegram Bot @GetBridgesBot and type
/obfs4. 或者发送邮件到 frontdesk@torproject.org,并且邮件主题需要包含“private bridge cn”。 如果你懂些计算机技术,可以自己在中国境外搭建并运行 obfs4 网桥。 请注意,从 Tor 网桥网站分发的 obfs4 网桥和 Tor 浏览器捆绑的内置 obfs4 网桥很可能无法使用。 - meek: makes it look like you are browsing a website instead of using Tor. 不过,因带宽限制这种网桥连接较慢。 You can select meek from Tor Browser's built-in bridges dropdown.
For obfs4 or WebTunnel bridges obtained via email or from the Bridges website, follow instructions to enter the bridge addresses in Tor Browser. If one of these options above is not working, check your Tor logs and try another option.

Russia
Since December 2021, many Internet providers in Russia have been blocking direct connections to the Tor network, so users generally need to connect through a bridge. The obfs4 bridge type remains the most widely used in Russia, but some mobile ISPs have begun blocking it through Deep Package Inspection (DPI). In those cases, switching to WebTunnel bridges hosted on less well-known providers (rather than major hosts like OVH, Hetzner, Linode, or DigitalOcean) can help you bypass these restrictions.

Turkmenistan
在土库曼斯坦,直接访问 Tor 网络受到严格限制。 The most reliable way to connect with Tor Browser is usually through Snowflake, and using AMP cache as the front domain. It's also possible to connect using obfs4 bridges, but users need to find bridges hosted on less-well-known providers rather than major hosting companies, since they are frequently blocked.
