Anyone know the Cost of a Visa on arrival in Laos, Vientiane for a US national?

Has someone applied in some embassy, paid, and got rejection only on the day of passport pickup?

Hello everyone. I am in Chiang Mai at the moment. On February 23rd I need to leave Thailand and get new visa in Laos or Cambodia. I need a real visa, can't enter on 45 days exemption. In 2011. I got Thai visa in Vientiane super easy in 2 days and was wondering if it's still the same situation. The other option is Cambodia, but I prefer to go to Laos because I would like to visit Luang Prabang again.

Second question is about transportation to Laos from Chiang Mai. Do you know some company that do transfers to either Luang Prabang or Vientiane and how much is the price approximately?

Thank you in advance.

HI guys,

Today I came to Vientiane to get tourist visa.

Many people was rejected but they still get 30days stamp in Nong Khae .

My documents were cheking very closely : Return ticker, hotels, bank account.

They said that deccision will be taken tomorrow.

QUESTION : what should I expect? I mean is this good or bad for my me? Also if they want to reject me they would do it immidiately right?

Thank you.

Hi everyone. Anyone got any idea how I can cancel an appointment made on the Vientiane Visa sight? I've looked everywhere and I can't find a cancel button.... Please help.

I just tried to use website to register online for appointment in Vientiane for visa. But, it doesn’t work, it says that my name or my passport already registered. I didn’t get any email from this website. I’ve tried to contact support, but I am unable to send a message to them. If you know what to do please let me know.

FYI

Those going to Vietiane for visas.

I'm reading in other places that the booking system is full and no appointments are available until the 13th March. Some say 19th March. I've not tried the system myself.

I suggest not leaving it until the last minute.

Hi, I'm getting everything together for tourist visa instead of extending my non o visa. I'm not decided yet whether to do visa exempt or go to Vientiane for 60 day visa. I'm not sure what to do about onward travel. There is 3 of us I don't want to be buying tickets for somewhere where we don't know where we are going yet? Any suggestions please

Hello everyone, first of all thanks to the admins and the people from the group, because help very much.

Now i have a question....

My last 4 visa application was in Vientiane (last in December 2018, by ground from Udon Thani) in March of 2019 finish my visa after the extension and i'm thinking to apply again in Vientiane doing another visarun.

But i read someone is having problems after many visa extensions in the same place and now have the new online service in Vientiane, and i'm a bit worried, because maybe my entrance will be denied in march after my visa run.

Someone have some experience and can give me some advice?

Because the thing is i like go to Vientiane and i don't wanna visit another country, because i have several friends there and i like go to visit and pass some days there, and escape of the crazy and dirty Bangkok.

About my nationality, i'm Spanish.

Thanks in advance.
