The Ministry of Interior has reported that more than 81,864 out of 182,673 foreign nationals surveyed in the Kingdom are holding invalid Cambodian documents, noting that the majority of them are from Vietnam. “We have revoked 35,001 irregular Cambodia administration documents held by foreigners,” an Interior Ministry report said yesterday.

 

It added that last year, the ministry issued visas to 2,782,297 foreigners and collected $87,750 in fines from those who overstayed.

The report also said in order to reduce the number of illegal foreigners, the government has cracked down on those who have overstayed or who are involved in crimes.

 

It also said that last year 1,348 foreigners from 52 countries who were involved in crimes were arrested and deported. Since 2014, Cambodia has deported more than 15,000 foreign nationals from 91 different countries for using invalid immigration documents to live in the Kingdom.

Not really relevant as 99.9% of illegals in Asia are Asians.

White folk are usually a bit anal-retentive in obeying all rules.

Seeing as they charge $300 for a 1 year VISA ........ that's a lot of theft by Cambo Immigration officials.

Almost $900 million, lost in the paperwork. 

Damn and I was planning a move to Cambo after overstay 10 years here.

If I ever see you in the bar, I will tell the waitress to deliver a glass of beer to you and say, "Mr Ernest Hemmingway that gentleman over there buy you a beer".
