No more freeloading....

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

I hope the competent authorities can identify these shady individuals and deport them soon.

Is that the Cambodian ‘immediate’? The one that can wait until after ‘eat rice’.

Not sure. maybe border control is busy eating rice? But the 10$ per day is quite a nice incentive for border control to start enforcing now.

So you entered on a Tourist Visa back in 2020 and were still able to convert to an E-type Visa EOS now? Based on those prices I'm guessing was via a Visa agency. Care to share details because there are a lot of you in the same boat.

I think no one would grumble at paying the initial $150 for the conversion, more so due to only paying $30 for up to a 2-year stay. Good value all in all.
Always "hope" but never "expect".
