Cambodia e-Visa guide

The basics

The Cambodia e-Visa was introduced by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in April 2006 as an online application route. Official sources indicate it covers tourist (T) and ordinary/business (E) visas for ordinary travel.

Validity

Tourist (T) e-Visa: 3 months from the date of issue, per the official visa type page and the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Berlin's summary.

Stay per entry

30 days on a Tourist (T) or Ordinary (E) e-Visa, based on available sources.

Where you apply

Online at evisa.gov.kh, operated by the E-Visa Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation. Applying at a Royal Embassy or consulate is also described.

Fee

The official visa type page lists USD 30 for the visa type it describes. Confirm the fee for your visa type on the portal.

Who it's for

The e-Visa is described as available to travelers worldwide. The sources reviewed do not set out a nationality-specific eligibility list.

• Tourist (T): leisure travel. Employment is prohibited on this visa.
• Ordinary/Business (E): business travel and ordinary purposes.
• Diplomatic (A), Official (B) and Courtesy (C): available online from August 1, 2026 for eligible holders of those statuses. These are not relevant to ordinary tourist travel.

How to apply

The e-Visa service is operated exclusively by the E-Visa Office and is not handled by Cambodian embassies abroad, according to the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Berlin. Questions about an e-Visa should go to that office.

• Apply online at evisa.gov.kh, or through a Royal Embassy or consulate if you prefer that route.
• Sources describe a processing time of about 3 working days.
• Check the official entry point list before travel. Not all entry points accept e-Visas.
• Complete the free Cambodia e-Arrival registration (immigration, health and customs information) through the official website or mobile app. It is not a visa. It produces a QR code that can be shown offline.
• Starting August 1, 2026, e-Visas carry a secure QR code instead of the older barcode.

Documents

• Original passport. Sources reviewed do not state a specific validity requirement for entry.
• Approved e-Visa (Type T or Type E) applied for through evisa.gov.kh.
• Supporting documents for the Tourist Visa (T): flight ticket and/or hotel booking.
• Cambodia e-Arrival registration, submitted no more than 7 days before arrival, with the QR code ready to present when requested.

Stay and extensions

Sources indicate a 30-day stay for Tourist (T) and Ordinary (E) e-Visas. Tourist (T) visa details describe a single entry that is extendable once.

The Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Berlin states the Type E visa can be converted in-country to an Extension of Stay of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months, renewable indefinitely. The 1- and 3-month extensions are single-entry. The 6- and 12-month extensions allow multiple entry. This is applied for at an immigration office or through a visa agent in Cambodia.

Official sources reviewed do not state detailed tourist extension procedures or penalties for overstaying.

Recent changes

• August 1, 2026: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation expanded the online portal to issue Type A, B and C e-Visas, in addition to Types T and E. Sources indicate traditional sticker visas can still be applied for through embassies.
• August 1, 2026: e-Visas issued through the platform carry a secure QR code, replacing the older barcode format.

Things to confirm

• The current fee for your visa type, on the official portal.
• Whether your nationality can use the e-Visa or needs a different route.
