Frequently asked questions
Is Laos safe for female travellers
Laos is a safe country for women travellers, although it is necessary to be more culturally aware or sensitive when moving about the country. Laos is very safe and violence against women travellers is extremely rare.
Do I need a visa to travel to Laos
Tanzanians do not need a visa to travel to Laos for a duration of 30 days, but can apply for an e-visa or pay on arrival at any International Airport in Laos.
Does Laos use US dollars
Although Laos's official currency is the Kip, the US dollar is widely accepted in many transactions, so we recommend taking some US dollars in cash. Other foreign currencies can be exchanged at licensed exchange shops, or in the banks.
When is the best time to visit Laos
The small, landlocked country of Laos is best visited between October and April when the weather's warm and dry throughout. River travel is best between November and January when high water levels make passage easy along Laos' main waterway, the Mekong River.
Visa fees and rules change often. Confirm the latest Laos visa
