thaiphoon Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The IATA database, which details global immigration requirements, indicates a passport and visa is officially required to enter Cambodia. But have seen some reports on the forum of some immigration border crossings issuing 'day permits' for Thai nationals, but suspect that won't help you for 7 day stay if indeed is still current. / 07APR10 / 1007 UTC National Thailand (TH) /Destination Cambodia (KH) Cambodia (KH) Passport required. - Passport and/or passport replacing documents must be valid for at least 6 months after the date of arrival, Visa required. Visa Issuance: - On arrival: if required, to foreign nationals living abroad holding proof of being born in Cambodia, and with a passport photo. Free of charge. Visa is valid until passport expires. - On arrival: if required, to those coming for touristic or business purposes for a stay of max. 30 days. Fee: USD 20,- and passport photo is required. (SEE NOTE 23655) NOTE 23655: Extensions are possible, for: touristic purposes:one month: USD 5.- per day; business purposes: one month: USD 45.-; 6 months: USD 155.-; 1 year: USD 285,-. Additional Information: - Tourist visas may be issued in a passport or issued in an e-Visa format, printed on a separate piece of paper. - All visitors must hold documents required for their next destination and sufficient funds to cover their stay. - Entering on a one-way ticket is allowed for nationals of Thailand Timaticweb Version 1.3 07 April 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bifftastic Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 hi i dont know for cambodia but for lao thai people no need visa and passport just ID CARD CAN STAY ONLY 2 DAys just called at the Embassy gl518/4 Pracha Uthit Rd.(Soi Ramkamhaeng 39) Wangtonglang Bangkok Thailand Phone: 02-253-6630 02-253-9851 when I went to Laos, ok it was just a boat trip (free from a Chinese company as long as you went to their new casino) g/f only needed ID card and I showed them my Oyster card (used for travel on London transport system!) told them it was UK ID card! her passport is full of Cambodia entry stamps from visits to casinos, no visa required, I guess it depends on what border crossing and the purpose of the visit, if you're on a bus going to the casino from Bangkok then probably not, but if you're entering at an airport or going over as a 'proper' visitor then stated rules will probably apply.

Amsterdam Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Any idea what to overstay penalty would be. Let’s say that the Thai national would enter on a one day visa but would spend 4 day’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samran Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 People are getting confused here. For a bog standard trip to Cambodia, you'll need a passport and also purchase a visa on arrival. If you are going to the border to use the casino's etc, Thai's can get away with crossing over for the day with no visa formalities, but they can't go any further. Unlike going to Laos, most Thai's can't get a border pass to visit Cambodia. these are only specially available to Thai's with a house registration in a province which borders Cambodia. In summary, you'll need a passport and visa if you are Thai and going for a regular holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freevisa Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I saw a photo on Nation today showing Thai & Cambodian officials on Thai-Cambodian Friendship Bridge - holding up their respective passports - with the caption saying that Thai can visit visa-free for stays up to 14 days. Can somebody confirm that this is true for all Cambodian port of entry? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can somebody confirm that this is true for all Cambodian port of entry? Thank you. Confirm. As of 16 December 2010, Thai people can visit Cambodia, and Cambodian people can visit Thailand, for 14 days visa-free. Mind you, this is not a border apss but really visa exemption in the sense of ASEAN. In fact, I had earlier heard that this would come into effect on 23 December and am surprised that they went ahead even faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deelectro Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Is it true that despite the current conflict, Thais can go to Cambodia as visitors? (of course not at the location of conflict) Edited February 11, 2011 by Deelectro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Yes, the borders are open (except for in the conflict area), including for Thai's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 However it might not be the best idea. Traffic is way down as more prudent travelers seem to be avoiding cross border trips for the moment; even many of those normally interested only in spinning the wheels of chance.

samran Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Can anyone update me on the current situation ... are Thais without a passport (just an ID card) allowed to stay for a few days in Cambodia? thanks, p Generally, no. Border passes aren't readily available to Thai citizens (unlike for travel to Laos). Need a passport, but get 15 days visa free entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepi2005 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I know that this is normally the case - I was refering to the visa exemption that was mentioned above and that has been introduced a couple of months ago as it seems. Unfortunately I can't find any related information on the Khmer Embassy website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepi2005 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) Found it out myself - Thais just don't require to apply for a visa anymore, but must still be passport holders: http://www.evisaasia.com/visa-news/visa-exemption-for-thais-and-cambodians/ http://www.un.int/cambodia/Bulletin_Files/Dec10/Cambodia-Thailand.pdf Edited July 8, 2011 by pepi2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went there myself 6 weeks ago, stamped in without a problem at PP airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
