TLDR : Answer Summary

The cost of a Visa on Arrival in Laos for a US national is reported as $40, although there are suggestions to use an eVisa for a smoother process typically priced around $50. One commenter mentioned it could also be equivalent to 1900 Thai Baht.

You can also do an evisa and skip the line at immigration. I think those are 50.
