Isn't it just asking for email address?

USD280 is for a one year Extension of Stay which can be extended for ever. There are also Extension of Stay for 3,6 and 9 months. 6,9,12 months are multiple entry. It can take about 10 days to get the visa done. There is an express option for USD70. That'll be two days not counting the first and last day, so four days.

USD in perfect condition. Tens are best. Otherwise have a very close look at any dollars you are given in change. THB changed into riel maybe best option. I only use riel. ATMs change Visa, MasterCard, etc.

If you are over 55 you need A passport A passport photo About USD 280 Take them to an agent for example in Phnom Penh Call Kim Lucky Marany If you go to immigration yourself you will need to provide documents but save about USD100 You need to enter Cambodia on an E- class visa. You get 30 days. After about 3 weeks go to an agent. They will organise everything. Good idea to keep a photocopy of passport so you can move around to show at hotel check ins

Yes.

Visa debit card is accepted. Don't know who decides on exchange rate. Visa is valid for one month. Can extend tourist visa for one month.

You don't get it and pay at the border. All your other questions should be answered here. Note the Name of Ports. E visa can't be used at every border entry. Welcome to the KoW. https://www.evisa.gov.kh/

Thanks Mike

Some hotel breakfast restaurants only have western food

Hi I'm looking for a hotel buffet type place. Western and Thai food. Not English fry up. Somewhere central, between the train line and the river if possible. Be passing through on someone's birthday.

With the strong wind blowing through Cambodia the last few weeks any smoke will be in southern Thailand

The train leaves from the old Bangkok station. Hua Lamphong Buy ticket on the day. Morning and afternoon train. Destination Ban Klong Luk not Aran. Usually there is one carriage with soft seats. Get e-visas for Cambodia. With six people, worth taking share taxi from Poipet. Make sure the taxi driver you are dealing with is going to be the one driving and check out the taxi. Most are good now.

Brickfields is nothing like Little India in Penang. It's just a few restaurants really. The attraction is as a transport hub. Trains are a much better option to get around than taxis. Drivers can be a hassle and traffic is always bad.

Brickfields aka Little India. Bus or train to and from airport and anywhere from there. It's the main station for local and inter city trains. Wide range of hotels and restaurants. Fair bit of road traffic. Chinatown. Interesting just walking the streets especially in the evening. Can get crowded. Some tourist sites like Old Market. Some excellent restaurants and ok hotels.

No, long gone. If you are going to Penang the water will be off for 96 hours January 10 to 14. The pipes are old so that period may change.

IS THE DIGITAL ARRIVAL CARD REQUIRED FOR EVERYONE? If you are Singaporean, you need not fill in the form. Malaysia long-term pass holders, those with Brunei common identification certificates and holders of Thai border passes are also exempt. Foreigners who do not fall under the exemption categories must submit their digital forms within three days prior to arrival. There had earlier been confusion over whether the digital arrival card would apply to all travellers, including those driving from Singapore or those opting to use manual immigration counters at Malaysia's land checkpoints. A grace period is currently in effect until Dec 31, allowing foreigners to complete the form upon arrival at Malaysia's international entry points. From Jan 1, the form must be completed within three days before arrival.

Anyone Malaysia's Immigration Department said on its website that all travellers are required to submit their Malaysia Digital Arrival Card before entering the country, except those transiting or transferring through Singapore without seeking immigration clearance. Permanent residents in Malaysia and Malaysia Automated Clearance System holders are also not required to submit digital arrival cards.

Rents are inexpensive. There have been very few foreigners around since the high season. That may continue due to long distance air fares. Some real bargains for long term stay, even one month in a hotel. Local foods are about the same as Thailand but you get a much bigger serve. Baguettes are 25 cents. Most baked goods are cheaper than Thailand. Anything imported can be quite expensive but there is a lot available. You may need to take out a bank loan if you want butter on the baguette. Comes from France. If you get the app transport is cheap in a pass app. Most tuktuks charge reasonable prices now.

I was concerned about getting lost in the crowd at the sunrise. There were only a few hundred people. A few tour groups showed up mid mornings. The biggest problem was tourists wanting to have their photos taken with my friends who were wearing traditional Khmer clothing. The other sites had hardly anyone.

I avoided staying there for years but some friends wanted to go for the eqinox sunrise at Angkor. We stayed on Taphul Road. I couldn't believe it was Cambodia. Street in perfect condition, no dogs, no garbage left out for days, no karaoke. Lots of hotels at different prices and good places to eat. We didn't go anywhere near Pub Street. If flying in the ground transportation is a bit of a problem. A van is USD 38 and a seat in a 12 seater is USD 8. Try to bring ten dollar notes. They seem to have a big stack of unwanted US dollars to hand out. If going to Mount Kulen avoid the crowded weekend The haze is nothing compared to Thailand

According to an Australian friend there were four flu vaccination s available in Australia. He had one for over 65s called Fluad Quad. Do you know which one you had ? He said his vaccination was good, no pain, no flu
