Entry details
Holders of a Timor-Leste passport get a visa on arrival — no embassy visit needed when visiting Laos. The Timor-Leste passport currently ranks #99 of 199 worldwide, with 88 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Laos is notably open to foreign passports, admitting 170 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #174 with 48 open destinations. Both sit in Asia, where regional agreements often shape entry rules. The arrangement is reciprocal — Laos citizens face the same visa on arrival requirement in the other direction.
In the opposite direction, Laos citizens travelling to Timor-Leste face: visa on arrival.
