Do I need to stay 2 nights in Huay Xai, Laos for a visa run?
I am about to go to the border for a visa run near Pai. My driver just informed us that it is now advised 2 nights instead of 1 night. Anyone else needing to stay 2 nights in Huay Xai, Laos?
Answer summary
The question addresses the new recommendation of a 2-night stay in Huay Xai, Laos for visa runs. Several comments note that it may not be necessary to stay for the full 2 nights, with alternative suggestions to cross the border and return immediately without extended stays. It appears that practices can vary depending on individual circumstances.
