Can i still do Golden Triangle Crossing For DTV visa run?

Answer summary

Yes, you can still do a Golden Triangle Crossing for a DTV visa run, with options available at Sop Ruak, Chiang Saen, and Chiang Khong. It's recommended to bring a passport-sized photo and pristine US dollar bills to pay for the Laos visa fee, which is typically $40 or 2000 Thai baht, noting that using Thai currency may incur additional charges. Chiang Khong is noted as the safer choice for same-day returns.

No problem at Sop Ruak golden triangle crossing. Bring a passport size photo and absolutely immaculate US currency notes to pay for your Laos visa, typically $40 or 2000 Thai baht. You overpay 700 baht if using Thai currency.
