Hey folks. If I issued my visa in Laos, is it allowed to enter Thailand from another country? I mean if it is possible to go to another country before entering Thailand instead of heading to Thailand directly from Laos.

TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, you are allowed to enter Thailand from a country other than Laos, even if your visa was issued there. Several comments from the community confirm that you can enter from any country without any issues.
