Yip, once had a positive test at Suvarnabhumi for Heroin, test got done three times (three positives…),, until someone suggested to use a different machine…

Took my car into Laos last month, we had all the forms but for some reason, Thai Immigration did not like them, we had to re-do them, plus had to get tons of photocopies made. Took over 1 1/2 hours to get into Laos. No hassles with the police (this time...). We also parked the car overnight at the new train station in Vientiane as we went to LuangPrabang, it was perfectly safe. Would I do it again? Probably! I wish though that with ASEAN, travel by car was made easier! It was very convenient though to have a car in Vientiane, for shopping and sightseeing etc. Tks OP for all the advice, very helpful and much appreciated.

You are not the only one, I do the same! Sick of being ripped off, especially now with the new tax “rules”!

Thais will NEVER be forced to pay!

I like to go to Vientiane for a day trip. Seem to recall that after Covid, a one night stay was required but don't know if that rule/requirement still exists. Possibly now to just enter Laos in the morning and return to Thailand in the afternoon (with Thai re-entry visa)?
