Visa services built on confidence.
66VISA handles Laos long-stay visas, permits, Thai visa applications and business services directly from our Vientiane office — with clear prices, real people and a process you can actually understand.
Deal directly with the local processing team.
Many agencies add another markup before passing the actual processing work to us. Deal with us directly instead — with a real office, transparent prices and direct communication.
Primary local provider
We handle visa and permit cases directly in Vientiane instead of acting as a remote online middleman.
Official processing channels
Our work is built around established cooperation with the relevant immigration authorities, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Planning and Investment.
Physical office
Visit us inside Harmony Hotel in a government-owned building. No appointment is required.
International management
Directed and owned by Sihong Xiao-Martz, an investor from Germany, together with an experienced local processing team.
Personally built around the foreigner experience in Laos.
Sihong Xiao-Martz, director and owner of 66visa, is an investor from Germany who came to Laos five years ago and is active in hospitality, mining and land acquisition.
Fluent in English, German, Chinese and Lao, he created 66visa around one mission: affordable, reliable visa support for foreigners with clear information and direct local service.
