Laos is an emerging destination for Bangladeshi travelers exploring Southeast Asia and a transit hub for ASEAN trips. Bangladeshi citizens can obtain a Visa on Arrival (VOA) at Vientiane Wattay International Airport, but airlines require proof of onward travel before allowing boarding.
EchoFlights provides professional dummy tickets from Dhaka (DAC) to Vientiane (VTE) using real schedules from Thai Airways and China Southern. Your PDF includes passenger details, flight numbers, connection points, and a booking reference.
Visa Requirements for Laos from Bangladesh
Bangladeshi citizens are eligible for Laos Visa on Arrival at Vientiane and other major entry points. Required at the VOA counter: a valid passport with at least six months validity and one blank page, the VOA fee of approximately USD 40 (payable in cash USD or Thai Baht), two passport photos, and proof of onward or return travel. Tourist visas obtained at the Laos embassy in New Delhi before travel allow longer stays and are recommended for stays beyond 30 days. Airlines require return tickets before boarding.
Flight Options from Dhaka to Vientiane
There are no direct flights from Dhaka to Vientiane. Bangladeshi travelers connect through Bangkok (Thai Airways, with onward Thai or Lao Airlines), or Guangzhou (China Southern). Total journey time is typically 8 to 14 hours including the connection. Vientiane Wattay International Airport is approximately 4 kilometres from the city centre.

Tips for Laos Travel from Bangladesh
Carry USD cash in small denominations for the VOA fee — exact change avoids delays. Have a printed copy of your flight itinerary ready for check-in in Dhaka and immigration in Vientiane. Laos is a popular addition to Thailand-Cambodia-Vietnam multi-country trips — your dummy ticket from EchoFlights also serves as proof of onward travel for those connections. For visits longer than 30 days, apply for a tourist visa at the Laos embassy in New Delhi before travel.
