Certificate of residency.

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia. Have some questions you want to ask before you move to Cambodia? Ask them here.

If your landlord is an important person and any part of the requirements are not met, it's easier for the sangkat to tell you it's not possible. We ended up paying to have the lease registered ($30) on the previous place just to move things along, but didn't feel obliged to give the landlord a copy of the registered lease.
Yes, get to the landlord through the weaker link, the tenant.
All part of the move to collect more fees/taxes.

The Sangkat are required to provide the details of registered foreigners residing in their Sangkat to the DoI.

Certificate of Residency is different from a Residency Permit (Carnet de Residence). The Sangkat are also responsible for the issuing of these, not the DoI.
Same. All received within an hour with a minimum of fuss.

Good point - if the sangkat prepares the document for you, check the translation carefully. My previous certificate caused mass confusion because someone at some point in the process said I worked for the embassy, and that made it onto the draft document (you need to give a reason for needing the document). No-one from the sangkat was prepared to touch it after that as they're terrified of embassy involvement, and it took a while for me to notice what the problem was.

I obtained one not too long ago, the same as Stroppy's. It should be good for two years I was told.

I'm wanting to get a residency cert. from my sangkat but they have never issued one before and don't know what it looks like. They say they are happy to fill one out for me but want me to come up with a copy of the document so they can just fill in my name/ address and stamp it.
Been looking for an old one i got in Sinville when I opened a bank account, but can't find it.....
Could anyone provide a pro-forma or a copy ( obviously with private details deleted) so I can sove my problem?
