can i get the Laos tourist visa in Bangkok since there is no Laos embassy in Pakistan so can i apply visa while on Thailand Tourist

It's possible to get a Laos visa from the Embassy in Bangkok, or the  Consulate General in Khon Kaen, however, I don't know if they will issue one to a Pakistani national. Here is the phone number for the Khon Kaen office.

 

Address:

Laotian Consulate General in Khon Kaen, Thailand 171 / 102-103 Prachasamosorn Road Amphoe Mueang Khon Kaen 40000 Thailand

Telephone:

(+66) 43 242 858 / 6

You have to leave the country to get a new 60 day entry from your visa. There is no other way to do it.

You can get a tourist visa at the Lao embassy in Bangkok.

There is also a Lao consulate in Koen Khen in the NE part of the country which may be closer than going to Bangkok for a tourist visa.

Map and contact info is here. https://goo.gl/maps/bCufi67kRFq

Not sure that is the correct Location for the consulate. The location shown on the map I posted matches what has been discussed before in a topic. It also shows a different phone number.

How can the citizens of the countries in the list get Lao visa?

According to notice No. 1232 issued on 1 October 2009, issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Laos.  If you are a passport holder of one of those 29 countries listed above, you can get Lao visa at Lao Embassies or Lao Consulates in your country or region.

However, if there is no Lao embassy or consulate in your area, you may need to plan your travel route to pass through one of Laos' neighbor countries (Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, China or Myanmar), there are Lao embassies in these countries.  You need at least two days there to sort your Lao visa out before heading to Laos.

You cannot apply for a Thai visa in Laos since Pakistan is on the list of countries whose citizens can only apply for visas in their home country or country of legal residence. See: http://vientiane.thaiembassy.org/upload/pdf/RestrictedCountries2013.pdf

When you have the multiple entry tourist visa you need to leave the country every 60 days for a new entry.

You can get more than 6 months of total stay from the visa by getting a new 60 day entry on or before the date your visa expires.
