Dominican Republic citizens — not to be confused with Dominica nationals — apply for the Cambodia eVisa fully online from Santo Domingo or Santiago in minutes, approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 3 business days before your SDQ–Miami–Bangkok hop.
The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Dominican citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Dominican citizens
Yes — citizens of the Dominican Republic need a visa to enter Cambodia. Every Dominican passport holder (from the Dominican Republic, distinct from the Commonwealth of Dominica in the Eastern Caribbean) must hold either a Type T tourist eVisa or a Type E business electronic visa, and the Cambodia online visa is the standard route because Cambodia maintains no embassy in the Dominican Republic. The Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Washington DC covers Dominican applications only for paper visas, and the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs e-Visa, approved in 3 business days, is the practical option for travellers from Santo Domingo, Santiago de los Caballeros or Punta Cana.
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 Dominican travellers: Apply 10-14 days before your departure from Las Américas (SDQ) or Punta Cana (PUJ) — American Airlines via Miami, JetBlue via JFK or Iberia via Madrid are the dominant routings to Bangkok via Doha or Dubai, and the multi-leg journey leaves little buffer to fix a passport-number typo or a photo-format rejection once you are already mid-itinerary in Miami or Madrid.
From application to email
How Dominican Citizens Apply for a Cambodia eVisa
The Cambodia online visa application takes 4 simple steps — form to inbox in 3 business days. Our team handles everything between paying and printing your approved electronic visa.
Fill your application
Enter your Dominican passport details exactly as printed on the biographical page — Spanish accents (á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ) must match the MRZ Latin transliteration on the chip, and importantly the country code on your passport is DOM (Dominican Republic), not DMA (Dominica) — select Dominican Republic in the country dropdown to avoid having your application routed to the wrong file.
01
Pay securely
Upload a recent colour passport-style photo on a white background; older cédula portraits and group-photo crops are rejected by the Cambodian e-Visa system, and resort selfies from Punta Cana or Bávaro will not pass the white-background test.
02
Expert review & submit
Pay the all-inclusive $80 USD tourist or $90 USD business fee by card — your statement will show the equivalent in DOP at checkout because the Dominican Republic uses the Dominican peso, and Stripe handles the USD-DOP conversion at the live interbank rate; the $30 Cambodian government fee is already baked in.
03
eVisa delivered to your email
Approval lands in your inbox in 3 business days as a PDF with QR code — print two copies before leaving Santo Domingo, one for the American Airlines or JetBlue gate agent at SDQ and one for the immigration officer at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap-Angkor International.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Dominican 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 Dominican 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.
Dominican Republic leisure travellers used to Punta Cana beach culture almost always pick the Type T tourist eVisa at $80 USD for Angkor Wat and Koh Rong combinations that mirror the Bávaro-to-Saona island rhythm, while Dominican professionals working on ASEAN trade, tourism-sector partnerships or Phnom Penh-based hospitality projects choose the Type E business visa at $90 USD because it supports indefinite extensions once 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.

Smart choice
Cambodia eVisa vs Visa on Arrival for Dominican Citizens
Both options exist for Dominican 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.
Dominicans steeped in the Punta Cana and Saona beach-luxury culture find a natural extension at Cambodia's Koh Rong island chain after the temple circuit at Angkor Wat in Siem Reap. Dominican couples typically anchor 3-4 days in Siem Reap for sunrise temple tours, then connect through Phnom Penh by the new Phnom Penh expressway before finishing on the white-sand beaches of Koh Rong and Koh Rong Samloem — a Caribbean-to-Cambodian-coast arc that fits easily inside the 30-day Type T allowance.
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.

Visa Requirements for Other Southeast Asia Countries
Many Dominican travellers booking a Cambodia visa for Dominican citizens combine their trip with neighbouring countries. Here's what you need to know about visas for nearby Southeast Asia destinations.
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 Dominican Republic citizens need a visa for Cambodia?
Yes — Dominican passport holders need a Type T tourist visa or Type E business visa for any stay. The Cambodia electronic visa is approved by the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 3 business days and is the standard route from Santo Domingo since Cambodia has no embassy in the Dominican Republic.
Is there a Cambodian embassy in the Dominican Republic?
No — Cambodia maintains no embassy or consulate in the Dominican Republic. The nearest Cambodian mission for paper visa applications is the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Washington DC, which is why the e-Visa is the practical option for Dominican citizens.
Do Dominicans need a yellow fever vaccination certificate for Cambodia?
No — the Dominican Republic is not on Cambodia's yellow fever transmission risk list, so Dominican passport holders do not need to present a vaccination certificate at Phnom Penh airport. This contrasts with travellers from Brazil and Colombia who are required to carry one.
How much is the Cambodia eVisa for Dominican citizens?
Our service charges $80 USD for the Type T tourist eVisa and $90 USD for the Type E business eVisa. The Cambodian government fee alone is $30 USD; the remainder covers Ministry submission, error-check and PDF delivery. USD is widely accepted in the Dominican Republic and your card statement will show the equivalent in DOP at checkout.
How long does the Cambodia visa take for Dominican passport holders?
Standard processing is 3 business days for Dominican applicants. Travellers flying from Las Américas via Miami, New York or Madrid to Doha or Dubai then Bangkok should apply at least 10-14 days before departure to give buffer time.
How long can Dominicans stay in Cambodia on the tourist eVisa?
The Type T tourist online visa allows a 30-day stay from the date of entry, with the visa valid 90 days from issue. Dominican travellers wanting longer trips around Angkor Wat or Phnom Penh can extend once inside Cambodia through the General Department of Immigration.
What documents do Dominican citizens need for the Cambodia online visa?
A Dominican passport valid 6 months beyond entry, a colour passport-style photo, and a card for the $80 USD payment. No yellow fever certificate, flight booking, hotel reservation or in-person consular step is required for the Cambodia electronic visa.
Do Dominicans need the Cambodia e-Arrival form?
Yes — every foreign visitor including Dominican passport holders must submit the e-Arrival form within 7 days before arrival. It is in English, separate from the e-Visa, and replaces the old paper arrival card at every Cambodian airport.
