Traveling to Cambodia is straightforward for most international visitors, thanks to flexible visa policies and a convenient application process. Below is the latest essential information regarding Cambodia visa requirements.

1. Tourist Visa (T-Class)

Most foreign nationals can obtain a Tourist Visa (T-Class) for Cambodia through one of the following methods:

Visa on Arrival

Available at: Phnom Penh International Airport, Siem Reap International Airport, Sihanoukville International Airport & Major land border crossings

Requirements:

• Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry

• One passport-sized photo (recent)

• Visa fee: approximately USD 30 (cash in USD recommended)

The Tourist Visa allows:

• A single entry

• Stay of up to 30 days

• Possible one-time extension for an additional 30 days

Processing time at the airport is usually quick and efficient.

E-Visa (Online Application)

Travelers may also apply for an e-Visa before departure through the official Cambodian government portal.

Key details:

• Apply online at least 3–5 days before travel

• Processing time: typically 3 business days

• Fee: approximately USD 36 (including processing fee)

• Valid for single entry, 30-day stay

The e-Visa is accepted at major airports and selected land border checkpoints.

This option is recommended for travelers who prefer to secure their visa in advance and avoid queues upon arrival.

2. Ordinary Visa (E-Class)

The Ordinary Visa (E-Class) is intended for business travelers, expatriates, or those planning a longer stay. Unlike the Tourist Visa, it can be extended for longer periods (1, 3, 6, or 12 months) depending on purpose (business, employment, retirement, etc.).

Initial validity:

• 30 days upon arrival

Extensions must be processed within Cambodia through authorized visa agencies.

3. Visa Exemptions

Citizens of certain ASEAN countries may enter Cambodia without a visa for short stays (typically 14–30 days depending on nationality). Travelers are advised to verify eligibility before departure.

4. Entry Requirements

In addition to a valid visa, travelers must ensure:

• Passport validity of at least 6 months

• At least one blank passport page

• Return or onward travel ticket (recommended)

• Sufficient funds for the duration of stay

Health-related requirements may change depending on international regulations. It is always advisable to check official government sources prior to travel.

5. Important Notes

• Visa fees are payable in USD. Small denominations are recommended.

• Overstaying a visa results in a fine (currently USD 10 per day).

• Visa regulations may be subject to change without prior notice.

Professional Recommendation

For most leisure travelers, the Tourist Visa on Arrival or e-Visa remains the simplest and most convenient option. For extended stays or business purposes, the Ordinary Visa is more appropriate.

We strongly recommend verifying visa requirements based on nationality before departure to ensure a smooth and stress-free entry into Cambodia.
