Visa Extension Costs: Any Updates?

I know what you're trying to say Jamie.

The initial VOA is still called an Ordinary Visa, it is the EB EOS that people are calling a Business visa. Up until Sept last year, the EOS for an E-type (Ordinary) visa was just called an E-type EOS, or EX.

I think you have the wrong angle on this. Holding a EB visa is for the purposes it was meant for, people working or with business in the country.
The law of the WP was introduced in 1997 and revised in 200? and now again and enforced very soon. Before it was a loophole or grey area.
I have known people holding a WP for the past ten years.
Have the correct visa for the purpose of stay and no problems.
its only recently been called a Business Visa though
it wasnt long ago it was simply called an "Ordinary Visa"

It was called the Business Visa for years before they changed the name to Ordinary Visa. Since then they seem to use both and the terms have become interchangeable so it doesn't matter. It's always been an E-class visa (not to be confused with evisa online visas) but all those subclasses are new.

Not like its thousands of $$$
did u think it would never be enforced??

Cambodia is just getting in line with other countries nearby as to visa laws and more important RAISING MONEY from the easiest to raise money from,
the expats who cant complain, ( if they want to stay)

EXPECT a visa for married expats with Khmer's in the future to come out, who can choose to work ( obtain a wp) or not

And when do you think that's gonna happen? First they have to get rid of that idiotic law that says farangs over 50 can't get married to Khmer women in Cambodia.
I've heard there could be a possible waver if you marry a bride over 50.
A waver that essentially means that you're getting an older woman that no Khmer man would want anyway? Can anyone here think of another country that has a weird law as this? And who told you anyway, Alonzo?
It twer a joke. Lol. Crazy people = crazy laws. Or vice versa.

Funnily enough, I know a guy who managed to get about 80% of his overstay fees (3-4 years worth) discounted by doing exactly this! Anything's possible in the KoW...

something ill find out next year anyway

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. What about people who already have expired 1 year visas in their passports? When they say "first time" they mean first time ever, presumably. Still nothing has actually been cleared up in the slightest by it officially going official.

Yet again, you completely misinterpret what I have posted.

What they state they will do or what they say they want to do is a very different thing to them actually getting it done. I don't know how to make it any clearer.

How about:

Me want. Me no have skills/infratructure to do.

No can do.

I was meaning the racist/ ageist marraige laws, but that's interesting.
I've met a few expats who've gone for the older model. Not a good idea in some ways. These third world countries are run on debt. The older the model the more debt. And guess who ends up paying it all off. It can take afew years of bits and pieces before full disclosure. The horror, the horror... Glad it seems to have worked out for your buddy.

The guy was trying to get an EG at the VOA counter at the airport. "No have" is actually the correct answer.

You're missing the point I was trying to make!.
Ok, has anyone managed to get a EG extension of stay??? It's supposed to be General, for those not retired and NOT working. Not much use unless it's actually available!
And has anyone Recently, I mean in the last week or so got a ER? And at under 50years old??. Income or funds needed to be shown or not???

These are exactly the same questions I have. At this stage I plan to change to EG if possible when my EB runs out in December. At least I have a few months to see what comes out of this mess. If yours is due now/soon you could always get a 3 month EB (if you not planning on going anywhere in the meantime) just to wait and see how it pans out?

I will admit that I just scanned through the above entries in this topic but here is the little bit I do know.

Today I received my retirement visa through LuckyLucky. She stated the minimum age is 55. Since I am between 55 and 60 I would guess this is probably correct. No type of retirement letter was needed. I have a friend who is 52 so I asked the girl how he can get a retirement visa. She said he needed "a letter" from the embassy stating he was retired. When asked it became obvious that the only thing she knew about this letter was that it needed to state the person is retired.

In the past I obtained business visas through a place in TTP. This time when I tried to get a retirement visa through them they said they didn't think I could go from business to retirement visa. They did not even want to try.

So in other words you pretty much had to shop around to get the best and easiest deal when it came to getting your retirement visa?
