This is what I am trying to do as well. I'll keep you posted in this thread.

I put my company name through google translate and it got rejected. I paid some translation service $5 to get it properly translated and it's been 3 days now, and they haven't rejected it. The whole process supposedly takes 8 working days.

I also got a call from a guy working for the Cambodian tax office. He wanted to inspect my "office" which is my studio apartment. I explained to him I'm planning to work out of my home and have no employees. I was unsure if you could have your business address the same as the residential, but he said that was fine. He took some pictures of my apartment and then he left.
You may want to check your lease to see if you are allowed to run a business from your address just in case of any problem. You may ask how the landlord would know - the next time the tax man visits after registration you may get a penalty if there is no company name board visible either on your door or the outside of the building.

That is my understanding as well. But they offer three options. I'm unsure which one applies in my case.
If you are the registered business owner, then Self employed WP.
