What is the process for a DTV visa run to Laos from Chiang Khong, and are there requirements for staying overnight?
Does anyone have any experience of doing a (DTV) visa run to Laos via Chiang Khong? Any issues getting stamped back in for another 180 days? Also I heard they insist on you staying at least one night in Laos correct?
Answer summary
The post discusses experiences related to conducting a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) run to Laos via Chiang Khong, specifically regarding re-entry into Thailand and the potential requirement to stay overnight in Laos. One comment suggests that while a minimum stay of two nights is often required for those entering without a visa, travelers may not actually be asked to stay that long when re-entering on a DTV visa.

2 nights, but that's normally for people trying to enter without a visa. You likely won't be asked to stay any time. But do be prepared for 2 nights just in case
