Cambodia is a wonderful family destination: the temples of Angkor feel like a real-life adventure to children, and the south coast is an easy beach finish. The paperwork is straightforward too, once you know the one rule that matters for families. The Cambodia e-Arrival Card belongs to a passport, not to a booking.

That means a parent’s card does not cover the children, the way a single booking reference covers everyone on the flight. However many passports your family travels on, that is how many e-Arrival Cards you need. Two parents and two children is four cards. Bring a grandparent and it is five.

Check the children’s passports first

Before you apply for any visas or file any cards, get every passport out and check the expiry dates. UK child passports are issued for five years rather than ten, so they run out sooner, and it is easy to lose track of when a child’s passport was last renewed. Each passport should be valid for at least six months beyond the date you enter Cambodia and have at least one blank page.

If a child needs a new passport, get it before you do anything else. The visa and the e-Arrival Card are both tied to the passport number, so a card filed on an old passport will not match the one the child actually travels on.

Children in the same family may also have different surnames, or a child may carry a surname different from one parent. That is fine: each card simply uses the name exactly as it appears in that child’s own passport.

من هي التفاصيل التي توضع على بطاقة الطفل؟

The child’s. A parent fills in the form, but every identity field comes from the child’s passport: their full name exactly as printed, their passport number, their date of birth and their nationality. The travel details will usually match yours, because you are travelling together.

The most common family mistake is copy and paste. When you file four cards in a row, the fields that change from card to card, the name, passport number and date of birth, are exactly the ones that get left behind from the previous card. Check those three against the passport in your hand before you submit each one.
