Visitors to Cambodia must obtain a visa unless they come from one of the visa exempt countries. Most travelers to Cambodia, including US citizens, will need visas. We recommend using the visa on arrival system in Cambodia.
1. All nationalities need to apply for a travel visa, except for nationals from the following countries
:
- Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Laos and Vietnam (30 days).
- Thailand, Myanmar, Brunei, Seychelles (14 days).
- Philippines (21 days).
2. Visa to Cambodia can be applied at ports of entry whether you come by air or by land.
Travelers are required to show your photo (3x4cm) and their valid passport. The Government Immigration distributes application forms upon arrival.
- If you arrive by air at Phnompenh International Airport or Siem Reap International Airport, it is very simple and just takes you few minutes to get visa done. The fee is 30 USD for a 30 day visa (Cash only).
- Obtaining a Cambodian visa is also possible at the Poit Pet border gate with Thailand (When you drive in from Thailand).
- From Vietnam you can enter to Cambodia via few border gates: Kaam Samnor in Prey Veng-Kandal Province or Vinh Suong at Chau Doc (Mostly people come by boat), Prek Chak in Kampot Province or Xa Xia at Ha Tien, Bavet in Svay Rieng Province or Moc Bai at Tay Ninh when you drive from Ho Chi Minh City. The Visa fee is 33 USD/ single entry.
3. A visa on arrival, valid for a thirty-day stay, is specifically granted at Phnom Penh International Airport, Siem Reap International Airport, and International Border Checkpoints. Visas are also granted at Royal Cambodian Embassy or Consulate abroad. The visa fee for a tourist is US$20, and the visa fee for a businessman is US$25. Visas can be extended at the Immigration Department in Phnom Penh City. A free visa (K) is expressly granted to the Cambodian living overseas.
4. Cambodia E-visa is now also available.
- All you have to do is complete the online application form available at the official website, pay by credit card online, and include uploading a recent passport-size photo in JPEG/ PNG format. The visa will be approved within three business days, allowing you to breeze by that lengthy line and get a jump-start on your holiday.
- The Cambodia e-visa, valid for a thirty-day stay, is available only for a typical tourist visa for a single entry. It is currently not available for nationals from Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Arab Saudi, Algeria, Sudan (it means citizens of these countries must obtain visa at embassy). For a business visa, please apply at your nearest embassy or on arrival at all major check points.
- Tourists getting such a visa online can enter and exit Cambodia through Phnom Penh International Airport, Siem Reap International Airport, Sihanoukeville International Airport, Bavet International Border Checkpoint in Svay Rieng, Cham Yeam International Border Checkpoint in Koh Kong, Poipet International Border Checkpoint in Banteay Meanchey, and Tropaeng Kreal Border Post Stung Treng.

Thailand Tourism

Thailand is a captivating destination filled with ancient history, stunning temples, and tropical landscapes. Here’s a quick guide to help you make the most of your trip:

Top Destinations

  1. Bangkok: Thailand’s bustling capital offers iconic landmarks like the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, along with vibrant street food and nightlife. Don’t miss exploring Chinatown and sampling local delicacies.
  2. Chiang Mai: Nestled in the mountainous region of northern Thailand, Chiang Mai is known for its serene temples, traditional markets, and lush jungle surroundings. Visit the ancient Wat Phra Singh and take a cooking class to learn local cuisine.
  3. Phuket: Thailand’s largest island is a paradise for beach lovers, featuring white-sand shores, clear blue waters, and a lively nightlife scene. Popular activities include snorkeling, diving, and exploring the island’s stunning coastline.
  4. Koh Samui: Experience the relaxed island vibe on Koh Samui, known for its palm-fringed beaches, luxury resorts, and diverse dining options. It’s a great place to unwind and indulge in local Thai cuisine.
  5. Ayutthaya: The ancient capital city of Ayutthaya is a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with impressive historical ruins, temples, and ancient monasteries. It’s a must-visit for history buffs.
  6. Phang Nga Bay: This iconic bay is home to towering limestone cliffs, hidden lagoons, and emerald green waters. Take a boat tour to explore James Bond Island and marvel at the natural beauty of this region.

Best Time to Visit

  • November to February: This is Thailand’s cool season, offering pleasant weather for sightseeing, beach activities, and outdoor adventures. The temperatures are comfortable, making it an ideal time to visit.

Travel Tips

  • Dress Modestly: When visiting temples, wear clothing that covers your shoulders and knees out of respect for local customs.
  • Safety First: Keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded areas. Avoid walking alone at night in unfamiliar places.
  • Try Local Cuisine: Don’t miss sampling dishes like Pad Thai, Tom Yum, Green Curry, and Mango Sticky Rice. Visit local markets and street food stalls for an authentic experience.
  • Getting Around: Tuk-tuks and motorbikes are popular for short trips. For longer journeys, consider hiring a car with a driver or taking a bus.
  • Visa Requirements: To enter Thailand, most nationalities can obtain a tourist visa upon arrival or apply for an e-visa online. The requirements vary depending on nationality, so check the latest details before you travel.
  • E-Arrival Card: If you're flying into Thailand, complete an e-Arrival Card (ED-Card) online within seven days of your arrival.
  • Health Precautions: Stay up to date on vaccinations, including those for hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and typhoid fever. Avoid swimming in freshwater lakes or rivers due to the risk of waterborne diseases.
  • Beat the Crowds: To avoid large crowds at popular sites like the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, plan your visit early in the morning. For a quieter experience, take a midday break and explore less crowded spots during peak hours.
  • Sunrise at Wat Pho: Many visitors recommend starting your first day with a sunrise tour of Wat Pho. The ticket lines are usually shorter early in the morning, and the sight of the sun rising behind the temple is unforgettable.
