IF A GIRL FROM LAO HAS MRS BEFORE HER NAME ON HER PASSPORT DOES THIS MEAN THAT SHE IS MARRIED, THE SAME AS IT WOULD DO IN THE UK? PLEASE REPLY A.S.A.P. AS I DO NOT WANT MY FRIEND FROM ENGLAND TO MAKE A BIG MISTAKE. THANK YOU NIGELNUCH.

YES

It's always a friend.

Yes it does

Having the gendered title of Mrs. doesn't mean she is currently married.....

Very common to still carry this formal address if widowed or divorce.

Yes, tell him to run for the hills
