hi so my wife came home and has volunteered me to drive some friends to border at thali (not sure spelling correct)they are going to Laos, she asked me if i want to go, now i am on my non o /retirement extension, I am aware that i would most likely have to do a re-entry permit or loose that. would i also have to do a visa at Laos. Thanks in advance.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual needs a re-entry permit for their NON-O retirement extension before leaving Thailand and will also require a visa to enter Laos, which can typically be obtained at the border. Several commenters confirmed these requirements and provided details about costs and the process for crossing into Laos.
