Why not get an E-visa online?

Easiest way is to get your visa online. Avoids the hassles.

Agreed. After my first experience with the crooks running the Cham Yeam immigration post ten years ago I have always got an e-visa before travelling. Back in those days they even had a creepy doctor guy there who was supposed to check that you didn't have any contagious diseases. What a joke.

And having to deal with hordes of touts offering to fill out your Cambodian Visa application form and to befriend you for a fee of course

The visa is $30, but you must pay in USD to get that. Otherwise 1500 baht.

E-visa is fast and easy to obtain, I applied on the afternoon 28 Jan and received it to my e-mail address on the afternoon 29 Jan, for the price of 40$ US.

Happy travelling .

The forum is for questions and we are happy to answer. However, sometimes urgent info can also be obtained by doing a simple search. It also helps to combine all questions into one posting instead of posting multiple threads.

The USD 30 work at Poipet AS LONG AS you stand your ground and do not pay the extra USD 5 they try to charge. According to the posts here on the forum BAHT 1500 is demanded and insisted on at Koh Kong.

All airport immigration charge USD 30.

In case no passport-size photo is presented to the immigration USD 1 is charged additionally.

This all pertains to Tourist visa. The electronic visa over the web is also a Tourist visa. Apparently it is no longer USD 37 but 40 now (recent posting here on the forum). In that case Poipet will be cheaper to pay cash even if you pay the USD 35. The electronic visa has one important advantage for those with few passport pages left blank: You save a full page! However the electronic visa is valid only at Koh Kong, Poit Pet, the Bavet crossing from Vietnam and Siem Reap as well as PP airports. So no chance for Pailin, Osmach and Anlong Veng crossings. The Pailin crossing might be a suitable alternative for people coming from Pattaya.

Maybe we should have a sticky for Pattaya - to Cambodia inquiries which combines all current info.
