A Currency Exchange At Nongkhai Crossing?

2010-09-28 17:06:32

Hi,
I'm about to do my 2nd ever run to Vientienne for a double entry tourist visa. Last time it went fairly well. A couple things I want to improve this time, one is to make sure I have $US to pay for the Laos visa.I tried last time to change in Khorat before I left, but they said they didn't sell US dollars (at Bangkok Bank of all places!!). Is there somewhere I can change quickly at the border, either side is fine as long as its fairly easy to get to. The fee is $30 for Aussies correct?
Also I have to say I'm looking forward to dealing with the pleasant Lao visa staff, after doing a crossing over into Cambodia not too long ago.
Thanks

Border Crossing On Mother'S Day

2010-08-02 23:47:26

Hi all,
my 30 days extension for the "first entry" of my double entry tourist visa is up next week. I was planning on travelling across a border on Mother's day to get my new 60 day stamp.
Is this a bad idea? (ie the border is shut? the traffic is terrible?)
If its a reasonable idea, then from Korat what would be the suggested border to cross-over for an hour or two before heading back home?
Thanks
