MagnumForce Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Hi All, Ubonjoe has referred me to this forum to find out if (a) it's possible to ride a Honda Click (with green book) into Laos from Mukdahan to Savannakhet, and, if so (b) what papers are required? Many thanks, MF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Small bikes can not cross the border between Thailand and Laos anymore, so that's not possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know that, Jackdd. Thanks for the info. Guess I'll leave it somewhere in Mukdahan for the few days. Any parking recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Many years ago I drove to Lawas in Sarawak and took a speed boat to Bandar Seri Bagawan. Same dilemna. I asked politely and parked at the police station. Edited January 15, 2020 by VocalNeal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know where they draw the line But big bikes are only allowed to enter when making a tour with a Laos tour guide (at least officially, might be possible to enter without the guide for some tea money) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bike parking is by a little shop, and is very close to passport control. They charge about 50-100 per day. I have used it many times and is an easy way to do the crossing. Check what time the bus leaves Muk and try to be at the border at that time, then you can just jump on the bus after exiting Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, no problems getting on the bus to cross the bridge after passing through Thai Immigration, right? Can I buy a ticket after Thai Immigration?

Yup, on your left going past immi is a booth selling the bus tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
