Apparently this is how it's going to be (or is) http://www.mlvt.gov.kh/news/announcement/news-on----80
Under the article you can download all the docs/forms.

This is addressed to employers, and once again states it is their responsibility to obtain the necessary documentation for any foreigners they employ. There is still total confusion over the status of retirees and those who don't work, as the Department of Immigration and the Ministry of Labour keep issuing contradictory statements.

Hard to take anything seriously from the idiot Cambodian lawmakers and their CPP cronies. Those punks tend to have a habit coming with random shits one morning and forget about it the next day. Anyone remember a few years ago where HE telling the cops to chop off school children's hair if dyed or deem inappropriate or prohibited kids from playing computer games at internet cafes. I could compile long list idiotic things these lobotomized nuts came up.

Regardless of whatever new law they came up with -- the answers will always varies. Now, I support the work permit but I dont like their motive. I dont know about companies, but I am willing to bet the majority of schools in the Kingdom don't pay their employees working visa. And those who work in the Kingdom as an Engrish teacher as their carrer, most dont have much alternative.

$100 isn't bad. But I personally wouldnt pay. I would just my way through when the immigration police turns up.

i can't even find anyone prepared to sell me one in SV so far.

they all say- do not need.
LOL

Muon Tooit comes to mind.
