Rules of entry and stay

Cambodia has lifted restrictions on foreign travelers entering the country. Cambodia has abolished the requirement to present a negative RT-PCR test result for COVID-19 before arrival, to undergo a COVID-19 rapid test upon arrival, and to quarantine upon arrival for fully vaccinated individuals. In addition, starting from October 3, 2022, foreigners are not required to show vaccination certificates or medical declarations upon arrival at land, sea, and air entries. However, there are remote thermometers and officials at the border to help monitor COVID-19 symptoms.


In terms of entry visas, Cambodian visas are resumed upon arrival for international travelers by air, land, and sea. Travelers can also apply for an e-visa online. The latest updates are available at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Kingdom of Cambodia.


Tourists must take out an insurance policy for the entire duration of their stay in the country. It should cover the cost of COVID-19 treatment in the amount of USD 50 thousand or more, as well as funeral services with a coverage of at least USD 10 thousand.
