Nanorana mokokchungensis is a robust-bodied and relatively large frog, reaching 87 mm (3.4 in) in snout–vent length. The snout is rounded and flattened. The eyes are large.

The tibia are long and robust. The toes are moderately webbed and have weakly swollen tips. The dorsum bears large, scattered tubercles. Dorsal colouration is uniformly grey, but the upper eyelids are yellowish-grey. The thighs have diffuse crossbands. The ventral parts are cream with greyish variegations. Males have a subgular vocal sac.[3]
