November 23, 201411 yr Can you take a hire car into Cambodia? by hire car I mean one from Avis or Hertz , one of the international recognized companies.
November 23, 201411 yr I think for the longer answer you'd better wait for someone who has actually taken a vehicle over the border and around Cambodia. Driving into to Laos or Malaysia is easy and commonplace, but as far as I'm aware it is still a bit of a rarity in Cambodia. This is fro people taking their own car - as far as I'm aware no car rentals have yet approved taking cars out of Thailand. Even your own car in still on finance will need permission of the loan company. however I'd love to hear that it is now easy to take your own car into Cambodia a say for instance drive to Angkor Wat.
November 23, 201411 yr In my case at least, my insurance stops at the frontier. Not that this bothers anyone unless you have an accident.
November 24, 201411 yr Avis started operating there this Year. Phnom Penh or Siam Reap. Website so Can book online too. No Worries ,Safest way IMO.
November 24, 201411 yr In my case at least, my insurance stops at the frontier. Not that this bothers anyone unless you have an accident. That is why you buy local insurance at the border.

So why did the police tell me that there is no possibility to buy insurance at the Cambodian border but that I shouldn't bother about it? (Chong Chum).

Just saw some other threads, and yes, apparently Cambodia is not as easy as e.g. Laos and Malaysia are. You could check with phuketrichard, a regular poster here who has been there a few times with his own car I saw in the threads.
November 24, 201411 yr I have had cover from a Thai company to drive in Lao, but I doubt very much if you'd get cover in Cambodia. I would also suggest that if one can get a car in there MUST be a way of buying insurance at the border. There's a lot of commercial traffic to-ing and fro-ing over the border and it will need cover - so logically there must be an office. the cover in Lao is minimal - but about 500 baht covers you.........I got a full years cover in the end off a Lao company.
