ALFREDO Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 That sentence is on most itinerarys. I do not know where you come from but I think you will be as most Tourists from developed countrys be given a Visa on arrival, a foto and 20 Dollars and to fill out the papers they give you in the aeroplane should do the trick. Never somebody on a airport or landborder in cambodia asked me for a return ticket. Anyway I never had one when I went there. No problem, enjoy.

ALFREDO Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) Thanks for your thank you. Regarding the Visafoto, as far as I know, if you not have one, you just have to pay a small fine and thats it-seems than its also ok without a foto. But better to have always some Visafotos in the pocket, here in Asia. By the way I can recommand the http://www.flamingoshotel.com.kh in Phnom Penh, has some nightspots dotted around it, The Walkabout, The heart of Darkness ect. and the big Central market, Psar Thmei is a short walk. But I read also some postings on thaivisa who do not like to stay there. If you book with theire Website they pick you up at the airport for free. Many prefer to stay in a hotel near the river, there are the western restaurants, ect. Have a nice trip. Edited April 10, 2010 by ALFREDO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mshoichi Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 As Alfredo said, I've never been asked for an onward ticket or any type of proof. My most recent trip, was 2 months ago: two photos, $25USD (should be $20 but was tacked with an extra $5). I had to fill out a re-entry permit coming back overland, wasn't needed for the air trip...though I don't know where or why the different policy. Once they didn't stamp my passport, though had I noticed this at the time I would have said something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always carry an extra passport photo with me. Actually, and my memory is a bit muddled from all the border crossings, I think the 1st passport photo was required by Thai immigration for the re-entry permit. Anyways, on Cambodia's website you can apply for an e-visa. It's accepted at the Phnom Penh airport: http://www.mfaic.gov.kh/e-visa/vindex.aspx. I've never used them though, perhaps someone on this forum has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
case69 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Well where back so i will just update you on some details of the trip. I printed my own boarding passes each way which allowed us to walk directley to passport control as we had no baggage to check only hand luggage. On the flight we each had 3 forms to fill out (arrival,departure,immigration)so i did them all and when i finished we where landing. Passport control was a strange carry on as people where just bunched up in no ordarly fashion, asked for there passport and told to go to the cashier where we were relieved of 20 dollars each. Leaving Phnom Pehn airport was 25 dollars each. For Alfred the cafe/rest is on road 172 house no 2 near the national museum. Just another note, as we where there new year a large percentage of the place was closed. Oh and the heat almost unbearable at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
