Sunrise today lands at 05:53 and sunset at 06:32 local time, giving 12h 40m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (17.97, 102.60) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Vientiane.
Around 840,940 people live in Vientiane, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Clocks in Vientiane stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +7 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Laos.
