Probably. However I had one passport stolen in 2007, and if it happens more than twice in a decade it's at my country's MOFA discretion as to whether they will issue another.vladimir wrote:In retrospect, perhaps you should have.Jerry Atrick wrote:I've had to pay $700+ for overstay previously. Not at the airport, at lucky lucky who then got me a one year extension no questions asked.
I had lost my passport in my house,but knew it was there somewhere so hadn't cancelled it.
Plus it was likely I'd find it at any time. Turned out it was inside a picture frame. Great drunk security precautions

And yes, I believe it's written somewhere that tourists in Cambodia should carry passports at all time.
I certainly never have, and never will.

^^ With any luck LTO or John Bingham may be along soon and give their version of the official line.
My understanding has always been that you do NOT need to carry your passport with you at all times.
That said, it has always been advisable to carry a photocopy of your passport just in case.
- You are involved in an accident, you can be quickly ID'd.
- Police, of any kind, want to see your docs for whatever reason.
- Passport is stolen, you still have a copy.
. . . etc.
When I visit the beach and check-in to a hotel, I give my phone number as my ID. Never been a problem. However, I am travelling with KH wife and kids, so your mileage may invariably vary.

We carry a reduced and laminated photocopy of our passport face page/current visa with us. Saves any hassle. Same risk as the copies of our drivers licenses, some truly determined cop might insist a copy is not good enough, but so far so good.

I don't know if it is the law to carry your passport all the time. In Thailand it is. Here, not sure. I never carry my passport here, even when I'm traveling around the provinces, though i keep a photocopy in my wallet. I have a few Cambodian IDs which seem to work well enough in the few situations I need an ID here.Username Taken wrote:^^ With any luck LTO or John Bingham may be along soon and give their version of the official line.

I know the word is out in the Vietnamese community here that if you have proper ID (e.g. Vietnamese passport, KH family book, work permit, work ID, etc) it is advisable to carry it or a copy, especially after the raids on Vietnamese areas much like the one on these Nigerians, where thet scoop up everybody without ID.

Interesting thought. I has been suggested that now that the police have consolidated certain markets for themselves, they are just eliminating the the competition.vladimir wrote:Next time I go to church I'm taking mine, they're after Africans.
