Do you need to show passport when paying for evisa Vientiane?
I would just suffer the tuk-tuk mafia, until you make payment at the consulate, which should be possible the same or next day after you apply via the eVisa site, before final approval.. -

Report Philippines Weather Poses Challenge to Independence Day Celebrations
File photo for reference only As the Philippines gears up to celebrate its Independence Day on Thursday, June 12, weather conditions present an additional layer of complexity to the nation's festivities. The southwest monsoon, affectionately known as "habagat," is poised to saturate much of the country with rain and gusty winds during this momentous occasion. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) has issued a forecast highlighting potential disruptions across several key regions. Pangasinan, Zambales, Bataan, Palawan, and Occidental Mindoro are expected to experience occasional monsoon rains. These areas may need to brace for increased precipitation, potentially affecting outdoor gatherings and parades traditionally held in honour of the nation's freedom. Beyond these primary regions, the weather remains a concern for the broader scopes of Luzon and the western section of the Visayas. These areas are predicted to experience mostly cloudy skies accompanied by isolated rain showers. Thunderstorms are also on the menu, primarily in the afternoons or evenings, which could cast a shadow over the day's scheduled activities. Meanwhile, the rest of the country will not escape the monsoon's reach, with predictions of partly cloudy to cloudy skies, and the possibility of localised rain showers or thunderstorms, once again more likely to occur later in the day. Attendees of Independence Day events are advised to prepare for sudden downpours which might intrude upon the celebrations. The atmospheric conditions include moderate to strong southwesterly to southerly winds prevailing over Luzon and Western Visayas. This pattern suggests another layer of caution as these gusty breezes could lead to moderate to rough sea conditions. For those intending to partake in coastal activities or travel by sea, it’s advisable to proceed with vigilance and heed local advisories for safe conduct. Metropolitan areas such as Metro Manila are not exempt from these gusty conditions, with expectations of blustery weather extending to Ilocos Region, Oriental and Occidental Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, Palawan, the Bicol Region, Isabela, Aurora, Zambales, Bataan, Cavite, Batangas, Quezon, Antique, and Aklan. The rest of the nation will experience lighter, more moderate winds from the southeast, which translates to relatively calmer seas, albeit with ongoing caution advised. Adding a glimmer of relief, PAGASA reassures that the tropical depression, which is being monitored outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility, is not projected to impact the country directly during this forecast period. This news offers a silver lining amid the otherwise turbulent weather outlook, providing some assurance that no further severe weather systems will inhibit the day's events. As the nation prepares to honour its rich history and the hard-won freedom of its people, the unpredictability of habagat serves as a vivid reminder of nature's influence on human events. Celebrants are encouraged to stay informed through reliable weather updates and to adapt plans as needed to ensure a safe and memorable Independence Day.
