I think it’s just a self declaration signed and thumb printed.

Re: Retirement visa changes?
What the heck is a letter of retirement? If one stops working, aren’t they ‘retired’? Does there need to be an official letter of permission from some higher authority in order to be retired?
Age number is used to start receiving social security, making withdrawals from IRAs/annuities, or whole life insurance.
So one could be in their 70s and 80s, collecting all of the above, and be happily working.
Or conversely, one could be in their 40s, not collecting all of the above, and not working.
I’m confused.

- Produce a stat dec stating that you do not, and do not intend to, work in Cambodia due to being retirede, etc.
- Provide evidence of sufficient funds for the duration of your Visa EOS.
You are at the mercy of the DoI Officials, you need to convince them of your eligibility. I know of several people in their 30's and 40's, and one 28 year old, who have received an ER EOS...I also know people aged between 50 - 55 who have been denied an ER EOS.

Re: Retirement visa changes?
Yes, I thumbprinted a letter stating how much I spent every month. Had to pay $5 for the letter (which the agent drafted after asking me how much I spent).
Re: Retirement visa changes?
There is no change, no supporting documentation is required if you are aged 55+.
The only difference is that ALL Visa extension of stays now require a simple request letter, which any decent agent will do on your behalf, you just need to thumbprint it.
I would advise you to use a different agent.
Let me guess which agent told you that you needed supporting documentation...Meta?

Supporting documentation as per above only required if under 55
Re: Retirement visa changes?
Just being pedantic here, but for EB EOS there's going to have to be a letter of employment from a registered company/business in Cambodia. Unless you are the business owner then you need to produce your business license, I think.
Re: Retirement visa changes?
Yes, for 6 or 12 mth EB EOS...if employee, official letter of employment plus request letter. If Biz owner, letter of employment, business license, tax patent and request letter.
For 1 or 3 mth EB EOS...Work Permit and request letter.
If applying for an EB EOS as a non-working dependent or a non-working legal spouse of a Cambodian Citizen, then different documents are required.
But this thread is about the ER EOS...not the EB EOS.
