Obtaining Cambodian business visa in 2022

Types of Work Visas in Cambodia

All foreign nationals coming to Cambodia for work must obtain an E-class visa, previously known as a business or ordinary visa, valid for 30 days. They must also obtain a work permit and employment card through the Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training (MLVT). Cambodia introduced new E-class visa extension categories in 2016, which include:

EB visa: The most common option for foreign nationals working in Cambodia. It applies to anyone working in the country, starting a business, freelancing, and staying in Cambodia for more than a month.
EP visa: EP visas are issued to foreign nationals coming to Cambodia to look for a job, start a business, or remain in the country after their initial 30-day stay under the E-class visa expires.
EG visa: The general visa that applies to those searching for employment. It can last one, three, or six months.
ER visa: An ER visa is for those looking to retire in Cambodia. They must show documentation of retirement in their home country and prove they can financially support themselves.
ES visa: A visa issued to students going to a school or university in Cambodia. Holders can extend it indefinitely as long as they can provide a letter from a registered Cambodian school and show they can financially support themselves.
ET visa: This is the technician visa extension, meant for those who work in specific trades or industries.

Application Process

Employees can apply for their Cambodia working visas in advance at the nearest Cambodian Embassy by submitting the documentation above. They’re also available at the Phnom Penh airport upon arrival.

Once the individual has a work visa, they must apply for a work permit, which is valid for a year and can be renewed for as long as the period indicated on a residence permit. Cambodia has two different work permits — temporary and permanent options.

Temporary work permits apply to staff and management specialists, technical workers, skilled workers, and service providers/other laborers. Foreign immigrants recognized by the Ministry of Interior, and foreign investors, spouses, and other dependents recognized by the Council for the Development of Cambodia are eligible for permanent work permits.

Visa Extensions

If you want to stay longer than 30 days in Cambodia, you will have to extend your visa at the Immigration Department in Phnom Penh. Their offices are located on Nr 223, Confederation de Russie (Airport Road), opposite the Phnom Penh International Airport. Contact them by phone on +855 12 581 558.

However, when you stay in Siem Reap or another city, you don’t need to travel to Phnom Penh. You can just ask a local travel agency to take care of the extension. They will charge you a fee for the extension and you may have to provide them with a passport-size photograph (4×6). You will have your passport and visa extension back in about 5 working days.

A diplomatic, official and courtesy visas can be extended at the Consular Department, Ministry of Foreign Affaires and International Cooperation in Phnom Penh.

Good to know: If you overstay your visa, you will have to pay US$10 a day as a penalty on leaving the country.

Who needs a visa for Cambodia?

Most foreign visitors will need a visa, including infants and children (the price is the same as for adults).

If you are from an ASEAN country and hold a passport from Brunei, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, or Vietnam, you do not need a visa to enter Cambodia for between 14 and 30 days depending on the country.

Officially, if you are from Afghanistan, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, or Sudan, you are not eligible for a visa on arrival and will need to apply in advance at the closest Cambodian embassy in your home country (although all but citizens of Nigeria can apply online for an e-visa a minimum of 20 working days in advance). For citizens of these countries, the visa requirements are far more onerous. At a minimum, you’ll need a return ticket and sponsor letter or letter of invitation from an employer or organization. Be aware that although residents from African countries are technically eligible for Cambodia visas, many are denied on arrival.

Procedure[edit]

1.To apply for a Cambodian business visa, an applicant must start by identifying the nearest Cambodian issuing agency (Cambodian embassy / consulate office / high commission) in home country or any neighbouring country.

A list of these authorized agencies can be viewed at http://embassy.goabroad.com/embassies-of/cambodia or from http://www.embassyworld.com/embassy/Cambodia/Cambodia.html

2.Go to the identified issuing agency in 1 above and find out the requirements for obtaining a Cambodian business visa;

3.Obtain a visa application form and complete it accurately. Do not forget to insert date and signature on the filled application form.

4.After filling application form, make copies of required documents and attach them to the filled form;

5.Make all necessary payments and also attach payment receipt on to the completed application form; and

6.Submit application to the office identified in 1 above.

Visa on Arrivaledit

1.When an applicant arrives at the airport or international border crossings, he / she must start by obtain an application form and complete it carefully and accurately.

2.On to the completed form, attach a passport photo;

3.Make payment and submit application form to the appointed section at the airport;

4.Also submit passport at the same section and wait for some few minutes as visa is being processed;

5.When visa is ready and affixed to the applicants passport, he / she is called upon to pick it.

6.Upon receiving passport, an immigration officer will take a digital photo of the applicant before he / she is leaving the airport;

7.When the photo is taken, the applicant can now leave the airport to destined place in Cambodia.

Cambodia Visa Extension Price (As of June 2019)

NOTE: If you want to extend your visa for longer than 1 month, you must enter the country on an ORDINARY (E) VISA.

A price range is shown because different travel agencies may charge different fees on top of the visa extension price.

Length of Visa Extension	Type of Visa	Cost to Extend	Single or Multiple Entry	Requirements to Extend
1 Month	TOURIST (T) VISA/ ORDINARY (E) VISA	$45 – $50	Single	N/A

1 passport photo (6×4)
The required fee in US Dollars

Here’s an example of a one-year multiple-entry EB visa. Note that to get a one-year visa you will need a valid work permit.

Travel Agent Suggestions in Phnom Penh

Another option is to drop your passport with a travel agency that will process your Cambodia visa extension for you, freeing up your time to explore Phnom Penh. This option is a bit more expensive than doing it yourself since travel agencies charge a fee for their service.

Below are some travel agencies in Phnom Penh that offer visa extension services. We recommend contacting them directly through Facebook messenger or calling if you have any questions before you go in.

Some guesthouses and hotels also offer visa extension services. Just ask at reception.

• 2World Travel #270eo Mao Tse Toung Blvd. (Corner of Street 199)

Near Central Market

• Lucky Motorcycles #413Eo Monivong Blvd (west side, about 50 yards south of the intersection with St 182)

How to Get a Cambodia Business Visa: Land & Air

Cambodia Business Visa at Airport

They hand out the Cambodia visa on arrival application forms in the plane. Or when you arrive at the airport, pick up a Visa Application and head to the counter.

There are usually two counters, the first where you apply for your Visa and pay, and the second counter where they call your name to pick up your passport with the Visa inside.

Cambodia Business Visa at Land Borders

If you are taking the land route, you can get the visa at a border checkpoint as well. Cambodia has 19 land border checkpoints with Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. But remember that, you can’t get this at every border checkpoint. The process is the same.

Make sure to tick Ordinary Visa in the Cambodia Visa on arrival form

In order to work in Cambodia, you need to apply for a one month “(E) Ordinary Visa” on the application form. There are no other questions at this time or interviews.

You just submit the form along with your passport, photo, and pay $35 USD in cash, and head over to the pickup counter and wait to be called. Every foreign worker first needs a one month Ordinary Visa to later be renewed for the desired length of time.

The whole thing can go quite quickly if the airport is not busy. After receiving your passport, you head over to immigration and give them your passport with a visa, together with your immigration card from the plane before going to get your luggage.

So the whole process is very easy, I have never been asked to show proof of onward travel or show any bank statements. However, it’s always a good idea to carry an onward flight reservation for visa.

This is what the E-Ordinary visa for Cambodia looks like.

The Cambodia Ordinary visa costs 35$

The Visa Project tips: If you do not have a passport photocopy ready, they will photocopy your passport for three dollars. Also, be sure to have USD in cash, as they do not accept any type of payment by card, and although there are ATMs nearby, they are often broken or do not accept foreign cards.

Applying for a Cambodian visa

What you need to apply for a visa to Cambodia:

A passport that is valid for at least six months and has at least one blank page
Cash in US dollars
As of June, 2019 a passport photo is no longer required to get a a Cambodia visa

Where to apply for a Cambodian visa:

At the airport. If you’re from most countries, you can get a visa on arrival at the Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and Sihanoukville airports. You do not need to do anything in advance — you’ll be given an immigration card to fill out on the plane and you just need to get in line on arrival with your immigration card, cash (in US dollars), and passport. There is an ATM at the airport in arrivals that dispenses US dollars if you don’t have any on hand.

If you want to skip the visa line, there’s usually an official on hand who will speed you through immigration and customs for a “donation” of between $5 and $20. We do not recommend this as it’s technically a bribe and not legal.

Online. Another option is the Cambodian e-visa, which can be obtained online. It is only offered for the tourist (T-class) visa and ordinary (E-class) visa and is available to those entering Cambodia at the Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, and Sihanoukville airports and Cham Yeam (Koh Kong), Poipet (Banteay Meanchey), and Bavet (Svay Rieng) land borders. It is only available to citizens of the countries for which visas on arrival are available, which is a nebulous and oft-changing list.

At a Cambodian embassy. If you prefer to get your visa in advance — or if you are from Afghanistan, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, or Sudan — you can visit your nearest Cambodian embassy.

At a land border crossing. You can also apply for a visa at the following Cambodian land border crossings (will be updated as more land borders re-open):

Cambodia-Vietnam border

1. Bavet international checkpoint: Moc Bai, Vietnam – Svay Rieng, Cambodia
2. Ha Tien international checkpoint: Xa Xia, Vietnam – Prek Chak, Cambodia 3. Phnom Den international checkpoint: Tinh Bien, Vietnam – Takeo, Cambodia
4. Trapeang Phlong international checkpoint: Xa Mat, Vietnam – Kampong Cham, Cambodia
5. Kha Orm Sam Nor international checkpoint (“Chau Doc crossing”): Ving Xuong, Vietnam – Kandal, Cambodia
6. O’Yadaw international checkpoint: Le Tanh, Vietnam- Ratanakiri, Cambodia
7. Trapeang Srer international checkpoint: Binh Phuoc, Vietnam – Kratie, Cambodia
8. Banteay Chakre international checkpoint: Binh Phu, Vietnam – Prey Veng, Cambodia

Cambodia-Thailand border

1. Cham Yeam international checkpoint: Hat Lek, Thailand – Koh Kong, Cambodia
2. Poipet international checkpoint: Aranyaprathet, Thailand – Banteay Meanchey, Cambodia
3. O’Smach international checkpoint: Chong Jom, Thailand – Oddar Meanchey, Cambodia
4. Phnom Dei international checkpoint: Ban Khao Din, Sa Kaeo, Thailand – Phnom Dei, Battambang, Cambodia
5. Psar Prom international checkpoint: Ban Pakard, Chantaburi, Thailand – Pailin, Cambodia
6. Daung, Kamrieng international checkpoint: Ban Klong Luk, Chantaburi, Thailand – Battambang, Cambodia~~7. Chong Sa Ngam/Choam international checkpoint: Si Sa Ket, Thailand – Oddar Meanchey, Cambodia~~

Cambodia-Laos border

1. Nong Nokkhiane – Trapeang Kriel international checkpoint: Nong Nok Khiene, Laos – Trapeang Kriel, Stung Treng, Cambodia

If you get your visa at a land border crossing in Cambodia, you may be asked to pay between $1 and $20 in “fees.” If your bus company offers a visa service for an extra few bucks, it’s usually better to pony up as it can save quite a bit of time and grief (Learn more about how to cross the Poipet land border without getting scammed.)

You can get one at the embassy, you can get one on the internet, you can get one at the airport.

Visa Not Required

There are currently around 15 countries and territories across the world that offer Cambodian passport holders the ability to cross their borders without the need to apply for a visa or travel authorization.

Visa not required countries for citizens of Cambodia permit travelers to stay between 14 to 180 days in the territory without a visa, depending on the destination. In some rare cases, it may be necessary to apply for a special permit to enter the destination visa-free.

It is usually only necessary to present a valid Cambodian passport at a border control checkpoint to gain entry to visa-exempt countries for purposes of either tourism, business, or transit.

Citizens of Cambodia who wish to travel to visa-free territories for longer periods or for other purposes, such as to work or visit as a student, need a visa to do so.

In order to obtain a visa before travel, Cambodian citizens can request an appointment at an embassy or consulate, or complete a simple eVisa application form online.

Browse the list below to discover the main countries for which a visa is not required for Cambodian citizens for short stays.

Update as of November 2021

Tourists are able to enter Cambodia again for the first time since the pandemic began. See the requirements to enter Cambodia on a Tourist visa here.

November 2021 update: We have received many messages from people asking for advice about Cambodia visa extensions. Things are changing frequently and we don’t have all the answers. For the latest information, we recommend joining the Facebook group Cambodia Visa and Work Permit Group where people are sharing their experiences entering Cambodia right now. Stay safe out there!

Things can change

Lots of rules related to the ordinary or business visa have changed. Right now, visa rules are changing without notice.If you are applying for an EB visa extension, do check with more than one agency to ensure everything. This post will be updated if we know anything has changed.

Other visa types:

K-class visa. The K-class visa is for those of Cambodian descent who hold a foreign passport. It is a free lifetime visa, although you will almost certainly be asked to pay an unofficial “facilitation fee” to get it. Bring any documents that show that you have one Khmer parent, such as a birth certificate, marriage certificate, family book, or Cambodian ID card. A Khmer last name and ability to speak Khmer may be enough—along with a $20 bill, of course.

Cambodian visas for children. Since late 2016, all non-Cambodian children have been required to have an E-class visa to enter the Kingdom. The prices are the same as for adults. If the child has at least one Cambodian parent, they can apply for a free K-class visa. Children can apply for a ES visa extension without evidence of being enrolled in school up to the age of 17. After that they will need to get an EB extension or show evidence of school enrollment.

B-class visa. The B-class visa is for employees of organizations that are in Cambodia at the government’s invitation, such as the United Nations or World Health Organization, and need to be organized in advance by the employer.

C-class visa. The C-class visa is a free visa for employees of international NGOs that have a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (these used to be B-class visas, but no more). The INGO will need to apply in advance for your visa and have a representative meet you at the airport on arrival with a letter of attestation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If you are already in Cambodia on another visa type, you will need to leave the country and re-enter to get your C-class visa. The first visa is good for three months and subsequently can be renewed for up to a year (based on the length of your contract) at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Ask your employer if you are eligible, because not all NGOs qualify. Spouses and children of those on a C-class visa are also eligible for this visa type.

If you are caught using a visa for a purpose not allowed under that particular visa type, you will be fined $100 and required to leave the country within 7 days (so don’t get a retirement visa if you are working).

Cambodia business visa extension

Cambodia business visa extension has many types. An E-class visa is recommended for an extended visit to Cambodia. If you are unsure how long you will remain, it is advisable to obtain an E-class visa because a tourist visa (T-class) cannot be changed later. The business visa is only valid for 30 days at first. However, you may get this Cambodia visa extended within Cambodia for one, three, six, or twelve months, and in theory, as many times as you like. At the moment, there is still a possibility of an extension of up to 6 months without much interest. As a result, Cambodian immigrants are interested in business visas. Cambodia is one of the few nations where you may obtain a visa that can be renewed as many times as you like in a very simple manner. However, this is mostly about obtaining a tourist visa to Cambodia. There’s more on emigration just next door.
