What are the current border conditions at Mukdahan - Savannakhet for Lao visa holders?
Any updates from Mukdahan - Savannakhet border ? Are they still open for people who has Loa visa? Is it going to be difficult to come back to Thai side after get visa at Thai consulate there??
Answer summary
The Mukdahan - Savannakhet border might be facing imminent closure, making travel potentially difficult for those holding a Lao visa. Recent comments indicate that amid tightening border controls, those who plan to renew or acquire a Thai NON-O visa through the Thai consulate should do so urgently before the border closes completely.

I border bounced their yesterday with a Lao visa in my passport (obtained before they stopped issuing them) and also a medical certificate to show.
On the side exiting laos there was only one station open to get the exit stamp and most everything closed down.
If you have a visa already you need to get there asap! They could close the border at anytime.
