Free Double Entry Tourist Visa In Vientiane

[Lee4Life]

We showed up at the Vientiane Embassy on 5/20 at 9:15am, near the embassy gates we were approached by a local trying to sell us Que tickets! We went in and found an embassy staff member trying to fix the que ticket machine! Waited for about ten minutes and they got the machine working, got ticket number 345, looked around and saw that there was not many people there and figured that the ticket hawkers had most of the tickets. Sat down and waited for number to be called, saw other ticket hawkers come in and keep punching the button on the que ticket machine until they got a handful of tickets and then left. Saw many numbers called but few people going up to the windows, also noticed that the line was being held up because of incomplete applications, some of which appeared to have been filled out by the guys outside the gate that charged a fee for filling out visa applications. Total time to apply was less than one hour. We came back the next day at 2:00 pm, only two people in the waiting area, walked up to the window and recieved the visas. total time for pickup was less than five minutes.

Our visas were double entry tourist visas, there was no charge. I asked if we could get triple entry free visas but got a smile and a "no".

Hi,how many Tourist Visa did you already have in your passport and where from?

The triple entry tourist visa is often of nu use, as Vientianne gives a very limited time to use the triple entries, as they do for their double ntry tourist visas.
