Laos Border Crossing policy amendment
 

Information gleaned from GTR website, bottom of page 3

At a meeting in Vientiane on 10th January 2024 it was agreed that there needs to be a policy / rule change, especially in Visit Laos Year 2024.
I will update this when the translation is done

Thanks for posting, Wayne. It's great to see officials are paying attention to the issue of temporary motorcycle imports into Laos.

It appears this meeting was spurred primarily by Thai-Lao border crossings. Any idea whether revised TIP policies will apply to all Lao borders? I'm looking forward to seeing the English translation.

I am not sure whether it will apply to all borders, hopefully once the English translation is out we shall know more. Otherwise I can ask the question on the other forum

The rough translation is out, it’s on the same link in my first post

Update curtesy of gtrider forum

Link is the same

There was a meeting with the Minister of Public Works in Vte and the rumour is next month - March - there will be an official confirmed policy change.
So hopefully some good news soon
