NEW ! Information on Work Permits.

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

why do you keep singling ME out to spin your diatribe on? I'm just saying what likely is true, new classifications will happen with new fees, and it will become more like Thailand where you gotta pay baht every other time you move. Tho it will mean fewer long stay twats I suppose, excluding the ones that can use the net to make money. Spout what you will, just leave me out of it as you don't seem to get what I'm saying.

The Residence Permit/Certificate of residence does indeed exist, very simple to obtain from your local Sangkat, as long as your landlord registered you with them as is their responsibility to do so.

And if your landlord has not "yet" registered the lease, you're screwed.

I don't rent, co-own with my wife. Since I've been living in the same place for 16 years I probably have one, just never needed it.

I know! But other readers may not be as established. So, tip to the wise, when you get a lease, make sure the landlord has registered it at the sangkat.

Even if the landlord didn't register you and your lease, it is still possible to obtain, but might cost a little tea money.

If you own, or live at your partners house, then it is up to you to register yourself as a 'foreign alien' at the Sangkat.

And yes, the ER visa EOS's have been available since Sept last year, although it appears that many visa agents are still unaware of the different options available when applying for an E-type visa EOS... So make sure you confirm with the agent prior to submitting.

Or not so little - cost me $30.
