Frequently Asked Question about Cambodia
Is a visa required for Cambodia?
Yes, visa is required to visit Cambodia. The visa can be purchased online or on arrival at the airport. However, there are cases at European airports where, without a visa and with only a flight ticket to Cambodia, airline staff may refuse boarding. For greater convenience, we recommend obtaining the visa online.
Is there a minimum deposit requirement to enter Cambodia — proof that you have sufficient financial means?
No, there is no such requirement.
