There are two ways to get a tourist Visa for Cambodia for Indian Nationals
Cambodia – 30 day visa is issued on arrival
Visa on Arrival is available at International Airports and Land borders
- Passport with minimum 6 months validity and a minimum of 2 blank pages.
- 2 passport size photographs with white background – we were only asked for one.
- Enough foreign currency to support yourself in Cambodia (most of the immigration officials don’t bother about this) – No one will ask you about this.
- Completed and signed visa form (one can get this at the immigration check point at the airport, if you are getting into Cambodia via a Land border then you will probably have a travel guide with you while crossing the border and he will have these forms.)The visa on arrival cost is USD 20 (the e-visa costs USD 25) and the visa allows you to stay in Cambodia for duration of 1 month. Only US Dollars in cash are accepted as a mode of payment for the visa. However at most crossings, you are expected to pay a bribe for lots of reasons, we ended up paying 28$ each and have heard people paying between 25-30$ on an average.
The e-visa will work at the airports, and some land crossings only. The place where we crossed into Cambodia from Southern Laos did not have any facilities to process an e-visa. You can apply for the e-visa here.
If you like to have hassle free travel pre-arrange your e-visa or get one through the nearest embassy, although obtaining the visa on arrival was a piece of cake.
