Popular Post Toosetinmyways Posted March 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) Check the web address. If it is .com that is the scammers site that nearly did me. Yes it looks all official with the correct government headers. Make sure you are at .gov Disclaimer: This Website is a professional travel agency that aims to help individuals and companies complete the necessary travel authorization requests for short-term stays in Laos. There is a service fee which includes expert help and assistance, and the fees charged by the Laos Government. www.laovisaonline.com is not affiliated with the Laos Government or its sponsors. An application can also be submitted for a lower cost through the Laos Government here though this would be without our professional review and expert service.

CuriousKen Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 Yep Toose, it's a .com, and they keep pestering me to complete payment. The official site would not do that I guess. Anyone have the web address for the Laos official site please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Take some pix, smaller USD denominations and a pen with you and sort it out upon arrival at the airport/border point - simple as that. Indeed, the fees vary depending on country of passport but that is just another funny thing about Laos. The official website would read https://laoevisa.gov.la/index and works well. Facilitating the visa story as you can do it at your convenience ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millymoopoo Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Visa on arrival is your best option, but bring US$, no credit card facilities. That may have changed since, but cash was the go last time I crossed from Nong khai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I paid in baht I got a VERY poor exchange rate. I also forgot to take a passport photo with me so they charged me the equivalent of $1 extra to "exempt" me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CuriousKen Posted March 10, 2020 Author Share Posted March 10, 2020 I am still confused. Can I enter at Vientiane airport and buy a visa on entry, or do I have to have an evisa in advance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned above make sure to use the correct website to avoid being ripped off. I think your online application needs to be applied for a few days prior to flying. I flew in from kL a month ago without a visa and they sorted everYthing in 5 minutes, photo and all at the visa on arrival kiosk, bring a pen. It was very quiet.
