Fee breakdown audits
Government fee + service review + e-Arrival — itemised, every time, no surprises.
About
In their own words
I run the Pricing-Honesty desk at VisaToCambodia. I spend my days reading other visa agents' checkout pages, screenshotting their fee disclosures, and filing compliance reports when their advertised price doesn't match what travellers actually pay. Since 2021 I've audited dozens of "guaranteed 24-hour Cambodia eVisa" promises, hidden-surcharge schemes, and bait-and-switch checkout flows aimed at Australians. The reason every fee on this site is broken down by line — government fee, service review, e-Arrival guidance — is because I won't sign off on a page that doesn't show it that way. I also write the comparison posts that look at us versus the alternatives, because Australians deserve to make the choice with the numbers in front of them. When I'm not auditing checkout pages I'm chasing a sourdough recipe nobody asked for and rebuilding the same bicycle I've been rebuilding for three years.
