NEW: Cambodian Entry Requirements for Foreigners Revised

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.

US is still at level 4 = do not fly internationally.

Businesses are taking this seriously.

Employees not allowed to take business trips abroad. Personal trips abroad are strongly discouraged.

If an employee ignores corporate orders comes back from Cambodia, mandatory 14 day self quarantine, using paid time of off (after 3 weeks in Cambodia = zero PTO left), or without pay. And negative virus retest before returning to work.

But at least the Kingdom of Wonder is issuing clear guidance now.
Not all businesses. Many are relying on CDC “guidance” and are applying rules as they see fit, which is even more convoluted since each state is applying their own rules.

I have several people (coworkers and customers) trying to come over and visit our site regardless of the quarantine because they don’t take it or the law seriously.

Up date =As of August 7 2020 the US now has lowered the Travel Advisory for Cambodia from Level 4 to Level 3:

The Level 4 advisory instructs U.S. citizens not to travel abroad and requires that Americans who are overseas return to the U.S. or shelter in place. Per the government's updated statement: “The Department of State advises U.S. citizens to avoid all international travel due to the global impact of COVID-19.

Level 3, orange, asks citizens to reconsider traveling unless it is essential. Before August 7 2020, the U.S. Department of State issued Level 4 travel advisories for the globe due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Geographic Risk Assessment for COVID-19 Transmission = for Cambodia COVID-19 Risk is Low.

Cambodia Travel Advisory: Reconsider travel to Cambodia due to COVID-19.
