TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the possibility of picking up their passport that was not collected on the scheduled date due to illness. Comments suggest that if they go the next working day with proper documentation and a humble approach, they might still receive their passport with the visa intact. However, there are warnings that failure to pick up the passport within the stipulated time may result in the visa being voided, necessitating a reapplication.

okay, I think the O/P will find out on Monday whether they have a valid visa on their passport or whether they' start over from square one.

Seeing as there's only those two scenarios I think we're done here.

I do know of several people who failed to pick up their passport for one reason or another up in Vientiane and they all had the visa voided and needed to apply again.

I guess you'll find out Monday afternoon.

I believe it is called personal responsibility is it not?

Ive read on other posts that if you go the next working day with the ticket and be humble and aplogetic, they will give it back with the visa intact. But call them anyway and leave a message so they know to hold it first thing Monday.
