TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is currently in Vientiane, Laos, applying for a DTV visa and is uncertain whether to use their permanent address in Thailand or their hotel address in Laos on the application. Community responses suggest that the user should input their permanent Thailand address along with the Lao hotel address to show proof of their current location.
