Based in Nan. Need to do quick border hop this weekend. Was thinking Huay Kon as it's nearest. Know they used to issue visa on arrival on the Laos side, but does anyone know for sure if they still do? TIA for any insights!

Update to my own query and a heads-up for others - went to CW, got told by 3 IOs separately (each out of earshot and out of sight of the others) that they wouldn't transfer my current visa extension stamp from my old passport to my new passport. Told me I'd have to apply instead for a second visa extension (the one they reject but you're given 7 days to leave the Kingdom and for which you still have to cough up 1900 baht). Current extension doesn't expire until tomorrow and said to them I was exiting Thailand then, but they weren't having any of it. So left with the current extension stamp still in my old passport. New year, new racket so it seems.

In similar situation and looking for quick sanity check. British citizen. Bangkok based (for now). Current tourist visa extension stamp (good up to the 25th) in old passport. Recently received new passport. Already arranged border run (via Ban Laem, Cambodia) for the 25th (this Thursday). Have no need of local immigration services before then. And really don't fancy a trip to CW tomorrow to transfer visa extension stamp from old to new passports. Wondering if taking both my old passport (with current visa extension stamp) and my new passport (with no stamps/stickers) would just be okay? Been advised immigration at Ban Laem would transfer the stamp but for a price(!). Thanks muchly for any help on this.
