The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Norwegian citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Norwegian citizens
Norwegian passport holders need a Cambodia tourist visa (Type T) or business visa (Type E) before flying, and the Cambodia electronic visa is the recommended route because no Cambodian embassy operates in Norway. The Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs processes Norwegian applications fully online with a QR-coded approval delivered in 3 business days. The electronic travel authorization is accepted at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville airports plus the main land borders with Thailand, Vietnam and Laos.
Cambodia tourist visa $80, Cambodia business visa $90 â 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 Norwegian travellers: Apply at least a week before your OsloâBangkok flight on Thai Airways or SAS connection; the e-Arrival form must also be lodged inside the 7-day window before landing in Cambodia.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Norwegian 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 Norwegian 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 â 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 â no embassy visit needed
All-inclusive pricing â government processing fee, expert review, photo optimisation, and e-Arrival guidance bundled in. No surprises at the border.
Norwegian ski-season escape travellers heading to Angkor Wat and Koh Rong take Type T at $80, while Oslo-based oil, gas, shipping and seafood business travellers visiting Phnom Penh attend on Type E at $90 because it permits onward extension 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 Norwegian Citizens
Both options exist for Norwegian travellers. The Cambodia e-Visa beats the Cambodia Visa on Arrival on every dimension that matters â price predictability, queue time, and pre-approval before you fly.
Norwegian families pair Angkor Wat with Koh Rong beach time during winter escape season, swapping the long polar nights for tropical heat between December and March. Oslo-based couples and gap-year students often combine Siem Reap and Phnom Penh with a longer Mekong or Thailand loop.

Practical advice from travellers who've been â 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 â small change comes back in Riel.
Best time to visit
November to April (dry season). May to October brings monsoon rains â 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 ($2â3 USD). Most foreign phones work on GSM. Metfone and Smart are the recommended carriers â both have airport kiosks.
Health
No mandatory vaccinations. Hepatitis A and Typhoid are commonly recommended. Drink bottled water only â 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 â 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.
