Laos has seen significant growth and investment, with 2024 expected to be a record year for tourism and business expansion. However, it’s important to remind businesses of their duty of care and legal responsibility to protect customers, employees, and their business. Phongsavanh Insurance (APA) kindly reminds businesses of the compulsory non-life insurance required by law and urges awareness of its benefits in unfortunate incidents.
(Article 14): Compulsory non-life insurance is required by law in Lao PDR for individuals, legal entities, or organizations, whether residing in the country or not, to cover civil damages for life and properties of third parties.
