Visas at the airport

Post by nightmare.believer »

The tourist visa is $20 and the Ordinary is $25. And you need to get an Ordinary visa in order to extend the visa inside Cambodia. Is this correct? And still need a picture?

The prices are correct.

You can extend the tourist visa once.

It will save you a few bucks if you bring your own pictures. Otherwise, expect to pay a couple dollars.

Just go to practically any travel agent or guesthouse and they'll be glad to do it.

1/3-month is single entry.

6/12-month is multiple entry.

And there are ways to turn a Cambodian tourist visa into a regular/business visa without leaving the country, but I believe that's technically under the table.

Can ordinary visas be extended for one month? or is it only 3 months or 12 months?

As above.

I believe the 1-month extension costs about $40.

It should be noted....

While prices haven't changed much, it now takes about 4-5 days to process the extensions, as opposed to the typical 1-day turnaround we've all grown accustomed to.

I remember extending my visa through immigration across from the airport. Maybe it is a better way to go rather than paying someone extra to do it?

Can you sum up the process? How much? What did you have to do, etc?
