I am currently in Saudi Arabia and would like to make a long-term move to Cambodia when it reopens its borders in next month. Attempting to apply for an electronic E visa from the Cambodian website will not allow you the option to apply for anything other than the eT visa if you are not from China (and, oddly enough, Taiwan). Are there any other options for getting an E-Business visa to Cambodia these days? Can you change an eT visa into a long-term stay visa in-country? Are there any other venues by which to apply from outside the country for long-term stay visas? Attempts to contact the Cambodian embassy in Egypt have resulted in them telling me to apply online since I am not in Egypt.

Thanks to anyone who can give some guidance and direction in regard to this matter.

You have to apply through a Cambodian embassy abroad and supply the required documents.
Or come on a T-visa, get one extension, hope the rules will be more relaxed in two months time and do a visa run then.
Currently visa runs are not really an option due to lack of flights and quarantine.
