TLDR : Answer Summary
The post inquires about the possibility of doing a same-day border bounce at Chiang Khong - Huay Xai using a DTV (multiple entry visa). Responses indicate that it is indeed possible and that an agent is not necessary. Community members have shared personal experiences confirming that there have been no recent issues with such crossings, and alternative crossing points, like Sop Ruak at the Golden Triangle, were also mentioned.

No issues, you can also do the crossing at Sop Ruak at the Golden Triangle immigration office, that takes you by boat across the river into the special economic zone.

remember to carry at least 2k baht cash. You might need to pay a Laos visa fee of 1.8k baht. The bus to enter and exit Laos cost 25 baht per trip so 50 baht in total.

There was an advert in another expat group from a driver to that border. 2500 for DTV holders. Sorry cannot remember which group but if I come across it will share.
