TLDR : Answer Summary
Multiple users confirmed that it is possible to do a same-day visa run to Vientiane from Udon Thani and receive a 60-day visa upon returning to Thailand. They noted that many people engage in this practice regularly. However, there were mentions of potential changes in regulations, suggesting it's prudent to be prepared for any unexpected requirements.

Well it's certainly not cheaper or easier especially if you're based in North or North East Thailand.

UD to HK is cheaper?? Really? 5 hr flight, with a connection/Change of aircraft in BKK…. Explain how 7K is cheaper than public transportation UD to Vientiane??

@Tim ******
Chiang Mai to HK direct was £60 return in a day. Sorry was basing it on being near an airport obviously.

I thought I saw they changed some rules so you have to stay over at least a night if not too. Go prepared just in case
