Hello members!
I need to do the border run and considering LAOS and Myanmar.
I know that in Myanmar if you do the visa run only and back at the same day, you don't need to buy visa. Just get a kind of permit for 500baht. However Laos is a little bit closer to my place, but visa costs 35$.
Or maybe something changed?
Anybody know if I want to do the visa run only at the Laos border, do I still need to buy visa and spent 35$?
Thank you in advance!
