What should I do about onward/return ticket requirements when flying to Vientiane, Laos?

Anonymous participantIf you’re flying into Vientiane, I’d play it safe and have some genuine onward travel booked, even if you’re not sure of your exact departure date. Airline staff can be stricter than immigration, and some airline guidance lists a confirmed onward/return ticket as a requirement.

If your plans are flexible, I’d choose a refundable/changeable ticket so you can adjust it once you know your itinerary. I wouldn’t rely on immigration simply not asking.
