Renew Cambodia Driving License?
Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
I did my last renewal at the end of June and didn’t need the address letter then.
Another guy (while I was checking my new paper) needed it, but I didn’t quite understand why.
Perhaps best to have the letter ready, but only hand it over when asked.
Ned, it would be great if you could give us a heads up after you have done your renewal.

Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
Last week at Aeon 2 I renewed my Cambo license that had expired in July. No residency letter or rental contract required.ned kelly wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2019 6:38 pm Last year i renewed my car drivers license at Aeon2,i had a letter from the Sangat,but was told i dont need it if i didnt change address.
I heard last week that they changed the rules AGAIN,and you do need the Sangat letter,even if your address hasnt changed.Can anyone confirm if this is the new rule?
Thanks.
You do need your current home country license, previously issued cambo license, and passport.
If you change your address, you need another residency letter.

Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
Renewed my licence today, at Aeon2 All was quite straight forward, especially as I introduced a complication myself.
My old Khmer drivers licence expired about a month. At the time there was no opportunity to get it renewed.
The licence was originally issued with my UK passport and UK drivers licence as proof of identity, etc.
This year, I renewed using the same UK licence, but my current visa (ordinary, issued at the airport last week) is in my Irish passport. After about 10 minutes of discussion behind the scenes, they processed the renewal.
For those doing this as a first effort or renewal, you might like to know-
Medical fee (eyesight, squint and look embarrassed). R10000
Photocopies both passports, both licences, current visa. R2000
Licence issue. R30000
Introduction, check documents- current own country licence, current/expired Khmer licence, passport with visa.
Sit, wait, make silly noises with freightdog junior (pays to take something along to keep one amused)
Get photocopies of required documents, pay fee
Sit, wait, make silly faces at freightdog junior
New ID Photo
Eyesight check, pay doctors fee
Sit, wait, play with junior
Licence paperwork issued, pay licence fee
Sit, wait...
Licence issued.
About an hour, all in.

Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
I'll be there a month or 2 but won't have the proper visa to get my expired Cambodia license renewed. They won't issue on the tourist visa per my understanding.
Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
Anybody renewed their license recently? I want to renew my license but it's (as always) unclear whether I need a residency letter from the local chief / sangkat or not.
Last year I brought one and they told me I didn't need it because it was the same address as on my current license. Appreciate any recent experiences.

Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
You don't need it to renew. Just for the original application. You do need your license from your home country though as well as passport. Wait times are now long.

Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
Latest update as this week. Foreigners who want to renew can go to aeon mall 2. Floor 2. They got the medical exam and eye exam. Easy.
If you want the 10 year license and want to do the written exam and test there is about a two week backlog so you need to register for an appointment, and pay 182,000 riel, 4 passport photos, color copy of passport and visa, and residency permit. Very straight forward. No leniency. The written exam and driving test is is done same day starts at 9am
Also they are changing locations this week.
Here is the new location.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
Just to add you’ll need to get there early as locals are done first on the practical driving test.
Don’t listen to Chinese whispers.
Re: Renew Cambodia driving license
I lost (can't find) my 10year Cambodian drivers license, and am looking forward to the entertainment of getting a new one, as soon as I get my sence of humor back fully, which could be a long time nowadays I'll head to Aeon Mall
I'm standing up, so I must be straight.
