| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| eVisa application Apply online before travel | Apply for a Cambodia eVisa at evisa.gov.kh. The fee is $30 USD, and processing takes 3 working days. You receive an approval letter by email — print it and bring it to the airport.Apply for eVisa | Required |
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of stay | Your Tunisian passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date in Cambodia. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Cambodia | Immigration officers at Phnom Penh and Siem Reap airports routinely ask for a return or onward ticket. Have a printed copy or show it on your phone. Without one, you may be refused entry. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Carry a printed hotel confirmation or an invitation letter from your host. Immigration rarely asks for it, but budget airlines sometimes check before boarding. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Cash or bank statement | Have at least $500 USD in cash or a bank statement showing sufficient funds. Immigration officers rarely request it, but you need to show you can cover your stay. | Recommended |
Cash only — no cards accepted
The visa-on-arrival fee must be paid in US dollars cash. ATMs are available at airports but having the exact amount in crisp bills saves time and avoids potential issues with damaged currency.
Photo on arrival available for a fee
If you forget your passport photo, don't worry — they'll take one on the spot for about US$2-3. But bringing your own speeds things up.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at the visa-on-arrival counter
After deplaning at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or Sihanoukville airport, follow signs to 'Visa on Arrival'. At land borders, look for the immigration office before the passport control booths.
2
Fill out the application form
Grab a visa application form from the counter. Fill in your details — name, passport number, arrival date, and intended stay. Keep it simple and legible.
3
Submit documents and pay
Hand over your passport, completed form, one photo (if you have it), and the fee in US dollars. The officer will process it — usually takes 5-10 minutes.
4
Collect your passport with visa
Wait nearby. They'll call your name or hand it back. Check the visa sticker: it should show your entry date and the 30-day validity. Then proceed to passport control.
5
Pass through immigration
At the immigration booth, present your passport with the fresh visa. They may ask for your return ticket or accommodation — have them ready. Get your passport stamped and you're in.
