If I have all my papers in order, are foreigners allowed to cross here in private car then proceed into Laos. Also I know Muang Ngeun was doing visa on arrival before covid, I am assuming they have resumed this?

By air thats really risky, I would not without agent. Was your 2025 time with exempts and tourist visas?

Sorry have not kept up with the wacky rule changes lately. I had 6 visa exempts with 2 extensions last year. (around 290 days in the country during 2025). My last visa exempt in 2025 by air has taken me into 2026 now. Can i get my one 30 day extension for 2026?

Im sure the land borders will allow you in for the maximum specified 2 entries per calendar year regardless if you have an extensive stay history or not. Granted most likely you need to stay a few nights at least in the other country. So basically this part has gone back to the same as it was before the "unlimited" rule was introduced.

Cheap over your health. Whats wrong with this country.

Ok i guess its not urgent to replace then but i dont know why they put this crap

Can anyone tell what type of material this is on the ceiling? Possibly contains asbestos?

I was just wondering if i should be planning some time in savannakhet. I will report back.

Im already in mukdahan. If i was near poi pet i would use that. There is no problems i was just wondering if anyone crossed recently. I have never used an agent i dont like to support that for a simple border bounce.

Well the last we knew at the end 2024 when nong khai was having problems people were still re-entering at mukdahan same day.

Does anyone know the current climate as far as a border bounce at Savannakhet. Can you do it same day or they request overnight stay now?

Yeah i noticed the same in bangkok in my truck just bouncing around everywhere cant relax and cruise on smooth road. I will say the main routes in the north, central, and isan are really nice now. I remember 10 years ago it was just a worn out 2 lane road in a lot of parts. Now many sections have been widened to 4 lanes with smooth pavement.

You should be able to enter with a new visa, the problem is if you go to an immigration office for an extension you will need to clear this overstay. 500 baht per day up to a maximum of 20,000 baht.

honestly DMK is the worst, I would consider cancelling and just flying to KL if you only need a brief time before going back to europe.
