Angkor Wat at sunrise, the royal palaces of Phnom Penh, and the floating villages of Tonle Sap — Cambodia is a treasure chest of history most Indians haven’t explored yet. This Cambodia visa guide for Indians explains the e-visa process, the documents you need, and the entry ports where the e-visa is accepted.
Do Indians Need a Visa for Cambodia?
Yes. Indian passport holders need a visa for Cambodia, with three options:
- E-visa (online) — apply before your trip; the smoothest option.
- Visa on arrival — available at Cambodian airports and borders.
- Embassy visa — apply at the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in New Delhi.
Cambodia E-Visa: How to Apply Online
The tourist e-visa (Visa T) is single-entry:
- Validity: 3 months from the date of issue.
- Stay: up to 30 days per visit.
- Fee: around USD 30 plus a processing charge (roughly USD 36 total) — confirm the latest fee on the official portal before paying.
- Processing: usually 3 business days, sometimes up to 5.
Steps: visit the official Cambodia e-visa website → fill in personal, passport, and travel details → upload a recent digital photo (JPEG/PNG) and passport bio-page scan → pay with a valid card → wait for the approval email → print the e-visa certificate and carry it with your passport.
Where the E-Visa Is Accepted
The e-visa works only at designated ports: Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and Sihanoukville international airports, and the Poipet, Bavet, Cham Yeam, and Tropaeng Kreal land borders. Entering through any other checkpoint with an e-visa can cause problems — check before you travel.
Documents Checklist
| Document | Details |
|---|---|
| Passport | Valid more than 6 months from entry, with at least one blank page |
| Digital photograph | Recent passport-size photo (JPEG or PNG) for the online form |
| Passport bio-page scan | Clear scan of the page with your photo and details |
| Credit or debit card | Valid card for paying the e-visa fee online |
| Travel details | Planned arrival and departure dates |
| Printed e-visa certificate | Carry the approved e-visa printout for immigration |
| Hotel booking | Proof of accommodation in Cambodia |
| Return or onward ticket | Confirmed ticket showing departure within 30 days |
For visa on arrival: carry a passport-size photo and the fee in USD (around USD 30 for tourists), paid at the airport counter.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Wrong border — the e-visa is only honoured at designated ports.
- Blurry uploads — poor passport scans or old photos cause delays.
- Applying too early or too late — the e-visa must be used within 3 months of issue; apply at least a week before travel.
- Overstaying — the tourist visa allows 30 days; overstaying brings fines and departure trouble.
