This how I cross the border on 25/12/2011. Keep in mind this can change quickly.
On the thai side:
- register to counter 2 (100 bath). Have als to explain that a bike
has no passport but a green book. They need 3 copy's from the green book.
- Than have to give the bikepapers to the counter, in brown on the picture next to counter 2 (free)
- Now you can drive in Laos
on the Laos Side;
- Make visa on arrival (35$) to counter 5
- than I could pick up the papers to counter 7
- Than go to the customs office to counter 8
- Make the insurance papers next door (door under the red flag), I payed 100 bath/7days
- A 100m down the road you have a check point where you need to register (free)
- you are now in Laos
