TLDR : Answer Summary
When visiting the Thai consulate in Savannakhet, it is recommended to pay with Thai baht, as it is accepted everywhere, though change will be given in Laos Kip. Additionally, the cost for a taxi ride from the bridge to the consulate is generally low, with reports indicating fares around 100 baht.

I paid 100 baht for taxi in januari 2024. Immigration to embassy.

I parked right in front of the bridge in mukdahan and got Thai taxi over and back. Very helpful with immigration offices as well.

Thai baht for the visa. You can use Thai baht everywhere but you'll get change in kip. Ride from the bridge is only a couple of klicks
