Macao SAR passport holders enjoy a 2026 visa-free pilot from 15 June to 15 October for stays up to 14 days; outside that window apply for the Cambodia eVisa fully online from Macau, approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 3 business days.
The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Macanese citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Macanese citizens
Yes and no — Macao SAR passport holders sit inside the Cambodia 2026 visa-free pilot that runs 15 June to 15 October 2026 for stays of up to 14 days. Outside that summer-autumn window, or for any stay longer than 14 days, every Macanese traveller still needs either a Type T tourist eVisa or a Type E business electronic visa. The Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs approves the online visa in 3 business days, and you never need to visit a consulate or send a passport across the border to Hong Kong.
Cambodia tourist visa $80, Cambodia business visa $90 — both prices are all-inclusive. Upload your passport bio page and a photo, fill in a few details, and your electronic visa lands in your inbox before you fly.
What you don't need:
No embassy visit or appointment
No flight booking required before you apply
No hotel reservation needed
No bank statement or proof of funds
No paperwork beyond your passport and photo
Once approved, your eVisa allows a 30-day single entry stay within 3 months of the issue date. Need longer? Extend at any local immigration office in Cambodia before your 30 days run out.
Tip for Macanese travellers: If your trip touches the 15 June – 15 October 2026 pilot window and stays under 14 days, skip the eVisa and just file the e-Arrival form — but for a 30-day Angkor Wat and Sihanoukville combo, the standard Type T electronic visa is the better fit.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Macanese Travellers Choose?
Pick the Cambodia eVisa type that matches your travel purpose. Choosing wrong can result in entry denial or fines under Cambodian immigration law.
Tourist eVisa
For leisure travel, family visits and short stays.
The Tourist eVisa is the right choice for most Macanese travellers visiting Cambodia. It covers sightseeing in Siem Reap, beach time in the Koh Rong islands, visiting Angkor Wat, and staying with family or friends — anything that isn't paid work or formal business activity.
Best for: tourism, leisure, visiting family or friends, short cultural trips
Allows: hotel stays, sightseeing, beach travel, river cruises
Does NOT allow: paid work, formal business meetings, signing deals
Apply: 100% online in 10 minutes — no embassy visit needed
All-inclusive pricing — government processing fee, expert review, photo optimisation, and e-Arrival guidance bundled in. No surprises at the border.
Macanese leisure travellers visiting during the 15 June – 15 October 2026 visa-free pilot can skip the visa entirely for short Angkor Wat trips under 14 days, but for the standard year the Type T tourist eVisa at $80 USD is the default. Macanese professionals from Macau-based gaming, hospitality or financial firms heading to Phnom Penh for ASEAN business should choose the Type E business visa at $90 USD because Type E supports indefinite extensions inside Cambodia.
Important: Using a Tourist visa for business activities (meetings, deals, employment) violates Cambodian immigration law and may result in deportation or future entry bans. When in doubt, choose Business.
Border entry
Where Macanese Citizens Can Enter Cambodia with Their eVisa

Airport code SAI
Sihanoukville International
Airport code KOS
Arriving by Land
Bavet

Smart choice
Cambodia eVisa vs Visa on Arrival for Macanese Citizens
Both options exist for Macanese travellers. The Cambodia e-Visa beats the Cambodia Visa on Arrival on every dimension that matters — price predictability, queue time, and pre-approval before you fly.
Macanese travellers typically anchor a Cambodia trip around 3-4 days in Siem Reap for Angkor Wat sunrise tours, the Bayon temple and a Tonle Sap floating-village day trip, before adding 2-3 nights in Phnom Penh for the Royal Palace and Tuol Sleng. Many extend with a coastal stretch in Kep or Koh Rong inside the 30-day Type T allowance — easily booked through Cathay Pacific code-share routings via Hong Kong.
Tourist eVisa covers this
Angkor Wat, Siem Reap
The world's largest religious monument and Cambodia's most iconic site. Most visitors base themselves in Siem Reap for 2–3 days to explore the temple complex at sunrise.
Tourist eVisa covers this
Phnom Penh
Cambodia's capital blends French colonial architecture with vibrant street markets, the Royal Palace, and sobering history at the Killing Fields and S-21 museum.
Tourist eVisa covers this
Koh Rong Islands
Some of Southeast Asia's last undeveloped beaches. Accessible by ferry from Sihanoukville — no internal flights or extra visas needed.
Tourist eVisa covers this
Kampot & Kep
A slow-paced riverside town famous for its pepper farms, French colonial buildings, and the freshwater crab market at Kep — a perfect 2-day escape from the cities.
Your Cambodia eVisa covers all regions — no internal visa or border crossing required once you're inside the country.
Practical advice from travellers who've been — currency, connectivity, weather, and the eVisa print rule that catches everyone out at Cambodian immigration.
Currency
US dollars are accepted almost everywhere alongside Cambodian Riel. You do not need to exchange currency before flying — small change comes back in Riel.
Best time to visit
November to April (dry season). May to October brings monsoon rains — southern coastal regions are most affected. November to February is the sweet spot for Angkor Wat.
Connectivity
Buy a local SIM at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap airport ($2–3 USD). Most foreign phones work on GSM. Metfone and Smart are the recommended carriers — both have airport kiosks.
Health
No mandatory vaccinations. Hepatitis A and Typhoid are commonly recommended. Drink bottled water only — even in major hotels. Carry mosquito repellent for evening visits to temples.
Print your eVisa
Print 2 copies of your approved eVisa on A4 paper. Cambodian immigration does NOT accept mobile screenshots. We email PDF-ready files with print instructions.
Getting around
Tuk-tuks are everywhere — agree the fare first. The PassApp and Grab apps give metered, cashless rides in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. Domestic flights link the major cities.

Everything left to know before you apply for your Cambodia tourist visa or Cambodia e-Visa. If your question isn't here, our team replies via WhatsApp or email within minutes.
Do Macau citizens need a visa for Cambodia in 2026?
For most of 2026, yes — Macau SAR passport holders need a Cambodia tourist or business visa. However, Cambodia's Ministry of Tourism has confirmed a four-month visa-free pilot from 15 June to 15 October 2026 covering Macao SAR passports for visits up to 14 days. Outside that window, or for stays longer than 14 days, the Cambodia e-Visa is required.
How does the 15 June – 15 October 2026 visa-free pilot work for Macanese travellers?
Between 15 June and 15 October 2026, Macao SAR passport holders can enter Cambodia visa-free for up to 14 days per visit, with multiple entries allowed during the pilot. You only need to complete the digital e-Arrival Card before arrival. Carry proof of onward travel and accommodation. For stays over 14 days, an e-Visa is required.
How much is a Cambodia visa for Macanese outside the visa-free window?
Our service charges $80 USD for the Type T tourist eVisa and $90 USD for the Type E business eVisa for entries outside the 15 June – 15 October 2026 pilot. The Cambodian government fee alone is $30 USD; we bundle the processing, error-check and Ministry of Foreign Affairs submission into the all-inclusive price. Your card statement will show the equivalent in MOP at checkout.
How do Macanese travellers reach Cambodia?
There are no direct Macau-Cambodia flights. Macau SAR residents typically connect through Hong Kong (Cathay Pacific to Phnom Penh), Guangzhou (China Southern) or Bangkok (Thai Airways, Bangkok Airways). The e-Visa is valid for entry on all these routes; during the pilot window, no visa is needed for stays up to 14 days.
Is the Cambodia eVisa accepted at Phnom Penh for Macao SAR passports?
Yes — the electronic visa is accepted at Phnom Penh International Airport, Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport and Sihanoukville International Airport. Outside the pilot window, all Macao SAR passport holders enter on the e-Visa.
How long can Macanese stay in Cambodia on a tourist eVisa?
The Type T tourist e-Visa lets Macao SAR passport holders stay up to 30 days from the date of entry, with the visa itself valid for 90 days from issue. This compares with 14 days for the summer visa-free pilot — so for longer Angkor and Phnom Penh trips, the e-Visa is the better option.
What documents do Macanese citizens need for the Cambodia eVisa?
You need a Macao SAR passport valid for 6 months beyond entry with one blank page, a colour passport-style photo (4×6 cm, white background), and a card to pay the $80 USD tourist fee. No flight ticket, hotel booking or embassy interview is required.
