Work Permit Visa for Laos

Working legally in Laos requires both a Business Visa (B2) and a Work Permit issued by the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare.
At LaoVisaGateway, we make the process fast, transparent, and stress-free — whether you are a foreign investor, company employee, or NGO staff.

We handle everything from eligibility assessment to document submission and final permit collection, ensuring you remain fully compliant with Lao labor laws.

  • Legally work and receive a salary within the country.

  • Apply for multiple-entry long-term visas.

  • Sponsor dependents or family members.
