Types of Cambodia Visas Available

Travelers visiting Cambodia can apply for different types of visas depending on their purpose. The most common visa is the Tourist Visa (T-class). It allows a 30-day stay and is extendable once for another 30 days.

Another option is the Ordinary Visa (E-class). It’s ideal for business, volunteer work, or long-term stays. Unlike the tourist visa, the E-class visa is extendable for 1, 3, 6, or 12 months.

Other specialized visas include:

• K-class visa for Cambodian nationals living abroad.

• B-class visa for NGO workers.

• C-class visa for diplomats and government officials.

How to Apply for a Cambodia Visa

You can obtain a カンボジア エビサ in three main ways: online (eVisa), on arrival, or through an embassy.

eVisa Application:
The eVisa is a convenient option. You can apply online via Cambodia’s official government portal. It usually takes up to three working days for approval.

Visa on Arrival:
Most nationalities can obtain a visa at the airport or land border. Bring two passport-sized photos and $30 USD in cash. It’s quick and ideal for spontaneous travelers.

Embassy Application:
Applying through an embassy is suitable for those planning to stay longer or needing special visas. Make sure to check specific requirements with the nearest Cambodian consulate.

Documents Required for a Cambodia Visa

Prepare these documents to avoid delays:

• A valid passport (at least six months remaining)

• One or two passport photos

• A completed application form (online or paper)

• Visa fee in cash or card (depending on application method)

For long-term or work-related stays, extra paperwork like employment letters or NGO approval may be necessary.

Visa Fees and Validity

Tourist and ordinary visas both cost $30 USD. The eVisa might include an additional processing fee.

Tourist visas are valid for 30 days and can be extended once. E-class visas start with a 30-day stay but offer long-term extension options through Cambodian immigration services.

Avoid overstaying. It leads to fines of $10 per day and may affect future entries.

Cambodia Visa Extension Guide

Want to stay longer? You can extend your visa at the Department of Immigration in Phnom Penh or through a licensed travel agency.

Tourist Visa Extensions:
Extend once for 30 more days. After that, you must exit the country and re-enter.

E-class Visa Extensions:
You can apply for:

• 1-month single entry

• 3-month single entry

• 6-month or 12-month multiple entry

Some extensions require a valid job contract or proof of residency.

Visa-Free and Visa on Arrival Countries

Cambodia offers visa-free access to citizens from ASEAN nations like Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos. Stays vary from 14 to 30 days.

Citizens of most Western countries (like the US, UK, Canada, Australia) are eligible for visa on arrival or eVisa.

Before you travel, double-check your eligibility on the official Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website.

Important Tips for a Smooth Entry

• Carry cash in USD, as ATMs may not be available at border posts.

• Keep a printed copy of your eVisa or approval letter.

• Avoid agents who offer fast-track services—they’re often unnecessary and overpriced.

• Check entry requirements during holidays, as immigration offices may close.

Final Thoughts

Getting a Cambodia visa is a simple process if you follow the right steps. Choose the visa that suits your travel purpose, prepare your documents, and stay updated on any changes.
