    Listed ordinary passports: 30-day visa exemption

    The current MOFA agreement table grants these ordinary passports a 30-day visa-exempt stay.

    • The current MOFA table identifies a 30-day stay for the listed ordinary passports. It does not establish a work or residence entitlement.
    • Entry remains subject to travel-document, port, security, immigration inspection, and other Lao legal requirements. Diplomatic, service, public-affairs, temporary, emergency, and special passports are outside this policy.
