TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster asked about the existence of a backlog for visa run bookings in Vientiane. The comments clarified the question, discussing whether it referred to the online appointment system or visa run companies. One user noted the inability to book appointments more than a month in advance and warned about penalties for no-shows or cancellations.

I want to apologize to the O/P of this post

.

There was no need for me to take a tone with you and provide a snarky answer.

I do NOT know how backed up the booking system is for Vientiane.

I DO know you cannot make an appointment more than a month out, AND

I know if you make an appointment but don't show up OR cancel it in the system you're blocked from the program for a month.

For any other answer I'd say you're gonna hafta log in and search around,

Sorry for my earlier answer.

Here's the link to the system
