As of January 1, 2025, Thailand has completely switched to an online visa issuance system. The main difference is that now you do not have to stand in lines to apply at the embassy, and that the visa will not be pasted into your passport — it will be sent to your e-mail.
The most important rule is that you cannot apply for a visa online while in Thailand. You must apply in the country you are physically in.
Our Laos visarun trips remain in the same format as before. And while for those traveling on their own, the processing time for applications is 10-15 working days (which you have to wait in Laos), for our clients there will be an express service.
DTV is a multi-entry visa which is issued for 5 years and the number of entries is unlimited. Each entry activates a new 180 days. Spouses and children under 20 years old can get a visa on the basis of a family member of the DTV holder. Everyone can apply at the same time. Visa fee must be paid by each applicant regardless of age.
Departure is from Pattaya. If you are in other regions of Thailand (Samui, Phuket, Krabi, Hua Hin, etc.), you can join the group at Suvarnabhumi airport. Domestic flight within Thailand from Bangkok to Udon Thani. Border crossing in Nongkhai, same day visa application in Vientiane.
The price for those who need a visa to Laos is 22000 baht (US, UK, Europe etc), children 20000 baht.
Price for those who don’t need Laos visa 20000 baht, children under 12 years old 18000 baht. Lao visa is issued at the border, our guide will help you to get it.
In addition, you have to pay airplane tickets from Bangkok to Udon Thani (from 2000 baht round trip), and visa fee in cash to the embassy in the amount of 10000 baht per person.
The price includes: all transfers along the route, passage across the Friendship Bridge, Laos entry fee, 2 breakfasts (second and third day), lunch on the first and third day, two nights in a hotel, consultation on individual DTV package and pre-check, accompanying guide along the whole route (the guide fly with the group).
Each DTV applicant has their own unique case, so the visa application package may differ. We will definitely give our recommendations on your individual situation and advise you on what will strengthen your application. The application packet for each applicant must be prepared in English before traveling and sent to accompanying guide for checking. This does not guarantee the issuance of a visa, but it will significantly increase the chances that your application package is assembled correctly. The visa fee for DTV (Destination Travel Visa) is payable by all applicants in cash to the embassy at the rate of 10000 baht per person
