lazygourmet Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) For the next coming months, I will have to visit Phnom Penh for 2/3 days on a monthly basis. I am residing in Thailand on a multi Non-O and applying for a visa on arrival, each time that I am going to Cambodia, is not only time consuming but passport pages as well... Do I have any better option?!? Edited March 9, 2015 by lazygourmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketrichard Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Cheapest is as u know VOA $30 they offer a E-visa online for Cambodia, https://www.evisa.gov.kh/ costs $40 ( $30 +$7 service charge $3 cc fee) and its only a stamp in an out not the full page sticker Or u can apply for a business visa on arrival $35 and than extend it for 6 months as that is for multiple entries ( about $160) they offer a 3 month BUT its not multi entry Edited March 9, 2015 by phuketrichard 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do this through an agent in PP or SR as the Thai Embassy is as friendly as a rattle snake to farangs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thais can only issue their visas, that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Not hard to extend if you are employed and ave a work permit. But the days of being able to get one without being employed -- or of being able to work without a work permit -- are over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think like most people who lived long time in Cambodia you do not see the truth anymore. Of course things are changing, but it is still so easy to cheat the system, or do you think that all the poor low so foreigners who live there could still be in Cambodia now ? Cambodia will empty quickly if it becomes as difficult as Thailand, so I am sure that it's not going to happen shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 They certainly don't need or want "poor low-so" foreigners living there. Tourists, both upscale and backpacker variety, yes ut sbort-term stays. Foreign busibessmen/investors, yes. Foreigners coming to do legal work, yes. Foreign retirees, it has been recently decided, are worth having. But the decidedly scuzzy element referred to, no. And that is exactly why the new regulations and crack down.This element is very noticeable in specific, geographically small parts of the cou try but their numbers are not that great. Their departure will not "empty out " anything. Might improve some neighborhoods, though.Sent from my SM-J701F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will issue the first extension without it but not after that. While large enough bribes can do just about anything in Camb, it would take a large one for this, more than a self professed "poor" expat is likely to have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are just as most long term expats in Cambodia who think that any rule is valid there... I will stay there as long as I want by just paying and I have no doubt about it.
