How much is it and can we get it at the Thai airports or at Friendship Bridge> The Thai Embassy in Vientiane takes how long to process a multi-entry permit? What are their hours of operation?

Laos visa is available at border and cost varies by nationality but about $35 for most.

The Consular Section of the Royal Thai Embassy in Vientiane is open from Monday to Friday. Visa application form could be submitted from 8.30-12.00 hours only. Visa applicants will receive their passport back in the afternoon of the following working day. Passport collection time is from 13.00-15.00 hours. Please be informed that the Consular Section is NOT located within the premise of the Embassy chancery at Kaysone Phomvihane Avenue.

Its address is No.15 Ban Ponesinuan, Bourichane Road, Vientiane Capital (near Lao-Singapore Business College).

yes you can get a visa on arival for laos at the bridge cost 35$ and extra 1$ after 4pm also may need a small photo.

you could fly into vientiene but those flights are quite expensive - cheaper to fly into udon thani with nok air or air asia and there's a shuttle bus service to the bridge/border.

basically you apply in the morning only and pick up the next day in the afternoon, also check to make sure they are open.

you can get a taxi from the border to the embassy which takes about 45 mins - tell the driver you want to get a thai visa and they will take you to the right one.
