Can a Cypriot passport holder obtain a new Visa on Arrival in Thailand by crossing into Laos?

sorry I had posted bad info, it appears you CAN get a visa on arrival to lao by showing up at the border and Cypriot passport holders are NOT from a country that has to buy a visa before they go

My apologies,

Now I'm getting conflicting answers about if you can or can't get a visa on arrival to lao holding a Cyprus passport. Sorry..

I just checked with a service provider up north that bounces people out and back with Lao

They said you CAN exit/re-enter the border up there and get a new 15 day VOA for 2000baht but you would could be asked to meet the requirements (20K baht or the equivalent in CASH, proof of lodging for the 15 days, proof you're flying out in 15 days)

Good news is that you CAN do it, bad news is it's only another 15 day VOA for 2000baht

Unfortunately that you want to stay here another month doesn't really factor into what you can do

The country your passport is from ONLY can buy a 15 day visa on arrival for 2000baht when you enter the country (and you have to show proof of 20K baht or the equivalent, proof of lodging the whole time and proof you're leaving in 15 days)

I don't think you can bounce by land and get a new 15 day visa on arrival. Some borders won't let countries who buy VOA bounce out and back

You MIGHT have to go to a thai consulate in another country (Vientiane/Savannakhet, etc) and BUY a real tourist visa to get in by land

OR

Fly out and back
