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. Our community can also answer any questions you have about how to find a job or what kind of work is available for expats in Cambodia, whether you're looking for info about Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or anywhere else in the Kingdom. You're also welcome to ask about visa and work permit questions as well, as the immigration rules change often, especially since COVID-19. Don't be shy, ask CEO's community anything!

Sure they do. You poke them, and money falls out - same as the rest of Cambodia.

$50 is indeed a ripoff - it's supposed to be free, but the majority of us end up paying $20 as the unofficial cost of greasing the wheels. But now you have the document, the pain of the cost will pass, and you can move on to the next step of being ripped off.

Have you got any where with obtaining your certificate of residentsy?

To other posters, about costs, yes the certificate is indeed free cost to obtain. But all know it may be that the end result is not so. Personally mine was a easy process talking 30 minutes or so, with the police filling in the paperwork, going to the photocopiers and so on. I just sat down answering a few questions. Presented with the original certificate, they keep the copy. Paid 10.000reil for good services.

Yes mate. Took a photo from here and had it copied and printed a few times. Showed it to to ministry of commerce guy and he said it would be fine. Now just a trip to see the local cops and get them to fill in the blanks and stamp it.
Cheers for your concern. Hope you are having a productive trip.

If your landlord wasn't registered, you may have nailed him to 10% tax. But paying half is good enough.

Do you mean to copy it and take it to the sankat? Or just make your own just in case someone asks.
If your a resident being here for 182 days or more your supposed to have one. Police also keep a copy.
