What is the law in Cambodia regarding exiting with a large amount of cash. I did it once before and don’t recall any scrutiny. Arriving in Australia I merely filled in a declaration form.

The authorities don’t care how much one leaves with. But carrying $10,000 and over may trigger problems at the destination airport.

Correct NKoTB, you can carry as much cash as you like, however on arrival in most countries it’s usual that you are supposed to declare anything above $10,000. You may be asked to explain why you are carrying larger amounts and the source of the money.

On the customs card you fill out it always asks if you have more than $10,000 in currency or something similar..be it travellors check, bonds, cashier check etc.
This card has your signature vowing NO or YES.
If you check YES it is a red flag for customs to pull you aside and have you prove it is legally obtained tender..You are then obliged to show proof.
If you check NO and for some reason they search your bags or person and find more than 10K you are going to be taken away to be interrogated and depending on the country..deported..arrested..etc.
The fbi led by james comey tried this scam on a young man named George Popadopoulos.
They had an undercover agent give him 10K in cash in a hotel overseas expecting him to fly back to the USA with it in his fucking pocket along with whatever money he had.
His gf, now wife, smelled a rat and had him leave it with an attorney in Greece.
He landed and was pulled aside by these gestapo tbug G-men all giddy about him not declaring it.
They were then shocked he had no 10K plus and had to then invent another reason to arrest him and take him away in shackles.
A true story perpetrated on a law abiding citizen by the most corrupt government in the history of the planet..the obama cartel.
Siem Reap has been nabbing men with millions of dollars of undeclared money in their suitcases.
I suggest you declare it and have ironclad proof that it is your money.

That's all you needed to say. The whole tinfoil hat brigade crap is unnecessary.
You know you can get Xanax over the counter here right?

They have cash -sniffing dogs in the airports where money laundering is a problem. If you have one dollar over $10,000 and didn't declare it and they find it, you've got big problems.

Is it just certain topics types that should be in the asinine area, or is it possible that some replies can just be cut out and posted over there?

Arriving in Australia it is just a formality. Complete the form No questions asked. I am worried about the Obama Cartel though, that’s disturbing news. Do they operate in Cambodia and Australia?
Does anyone know Vespa money changers near the roundabout on Chech Ave. They told me last time that they could transfer cash to an Australian bank account. I tried google maps but got several change shops near them but not them.
