What is the current status of the Lao border and entry requirements to re-enter Thailand?
Would love to nick up to Vientiane for a weekend, anyone have any idea about the status of A. The Lao border B. What it would take to regain entry into Thailand
Answer summary
Currently, all land borders to Laos are closed, and entry is only permitted as part of a package tour group. When re-entering Thailand, travelers must meet all entry requirements, including obtaining a Thai Pass. There are also potential changes in rules from the Laos government that may align with updates in Thailand.

I have read in a Laos related group that the government internally agreed on adopting new rules very similar to the one that will be effective on May 1 in Thailand. Next week we shall see if it is true or not.

said you can only enter as part of a tour group. With regards to re-entering Thailand, you'd need to meet all of the entry requirements in place including getting a Thai Pass.
