TLDR : Answer Summary

The border crossing from Thailand to Laos at Mukdahan is open from 6 AM to 10 PM, not closing at 6 PM as questioned. Several comments confirmed this operation time and mentioned that the Lao side closes, affecting the ability to obtain a visa on arrival after a certain hour.

I don't think it's open until midnight because the Lao side closes and you can't get a visa on arrival to stamp IN to Lao
