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

When crossing the border on the new Bangkok to Vientiane train, do I need to have my Laos visa ready to show on the train or is there a place to obtain the visa upon disembarking the train?

Does anyone knows if this info is correct?

Currently, I am staying in Thailand.

I am planning to go to Vientien in Laos and get a DTV visa

I wonder if I should submit a residence certificate

I'm wondering if anyone knows how to submit a DTV visa in Laos as a traveler

Laos VS Cambodia - do you know which embassy is more relaxed in term of requirement for translated/notarized documents?

Hey folks,

I plan to do my first overland border crossing this week at Friendship Bridge no. 4 into Huay Xai, Laos. Is anybody familiar with that one?

I’ve got two exempt stamps already this year (both airport entries) and i’ve extended both times. Am i likely to encounter issues with Thai immigration if i leave the country and attempt to come back on the same day, or is that par for the course? Would i be better staying two or three nights in Laos?

Thanks in advance for any help and advice you can offer,

Matt 😁

Doing a border run to Laos and back 2 days later. Any problem paying Laos entry in Baht? And what is the cost to return to Thailand? Is the return automatically good for 30 more days ? TIA

Hey friends,

I’ll have to do a visa run within the next 2 weeks. What’s your recommendation to do so on a budget. Do you know companies or groups that facilitate that without headaches?

I’m based in BKK.

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Hi, I need to send my passport from Thailand to Laos for a visa renewal in Laos (I own a business there, but live in Thailand). Does anybody know of a reliable service that can do this?
