Travelling soon and looking for best ATMs in Laos that work well with foreign debit/credit cards and dont charge crazy fees. Any recos will be highly appreciated.
Indochina Bank ATM in Laos accepts only Visa and charges more than other banks. Use alternatives if possible.
High fees at Indochina ATM in Laos. Only Visa cards work - not ideal for all travelers.
Tried three different cards at LDB and none of them worked.
Flat fee of 20,000 LAK at Laoviet Bank, no matter how much you withdraw. Fair and transparent.
You can withdraw up to 2 million kip at this Laoviet ATM. It charges 20,000 per transaction-not bad.
Laoviet Bank charges a 20,000 kip fee per transaction. Just a heads-up for travelers.
Avoid BFL if you can. Charged 40,000 LAK and gave a poor exchange rate.
BFL supports Mastercard and Visa, including our U.S. card. Max withdrawal limit of 2 million kip.
BFL ATM was in French and had a max limit of 2 million kip. Fee was 40,000 kip-bit much.
Max withdrawal was 2,000,000 kip. Good enough for most short stays.
BCEL ATM charged a 30,000 kip fee for withdrawals. Pretty standard across Laos.
