cowslip Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I think the original question was a bit obscure. Can I take my car across here? Is there a ferry or something? Are private vehicles permitted to pass here? if not what other crossings are there besides Friendship Bridges 1,2 and 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirchai Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 NOT from an immigration, but from any land and transport office. You need the blue book for the car,and if that is not in your own name authourisation from the owner, then you need a "Passport rot " ( its a purple couled book) from the land transport office ,they will give you the sticker with the letter T, At the border you will need the Original of every thing not a copy, Its a little complicated at the border as you have to fill in a form listing all the people travelling with you. The wording is strange as the call the passengers "crew". Don't forget in Laos they drive on the "Wrong " side of the road as in Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkerrrrr Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 yes there's a ferry waiting for you or you can wait till they finish constructing the bridge which is supposed to be finished by this year(friendship bridge4 but i don't think it will be done this year) there are other crossing boarders other than friendship bridge 1,2,3 but I don't know your destination If to go to Luangprabang then take friendship bridge 1 and if going to Luangnamtha or Bokeo Huayxai then cross boarder from Chiangkong If going to Pakbeng then cross the boarder to Mueangeungon from Nan district of thailand.
