Embassy of the Lao People's Democratic Republic

The Embassy is the formal communication link between the Lao and the Canadian governments. The Ambassador heads the Embassy and is the official representative to Canada of the Lao Government. We monitor and report back to the Lao government on political, economic and financial events and developments in Canada that are of relevance for our bilateral relations. 

The Embassy fulfils the role of a Lao public authority when it comes to consular and migration-related matters, which include issuance of passports and different kinds of certificates, visas for students, residence and work permits as well as assistance to Lao people in emergency situations.
