Turkmen passport holders apply for the Cambodia eVisa fully online from Ashgabat — no Cambodian embassy in Turkmenistan, approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 3 business days and emailed before you connect via Istanbul or Dubai.
The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Turkmen citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Turkmen citizens
Yes — Turkmen citizens need a visa for Cambodia. Every Turkmenistan passport holder must obtain either a Type T tourist eVisa or a Type E business electronic visa before flying, and the Cambodia online visa is the only practical route because Cambodia maintains no embassy or consulate anywhere in Turkmenistan. The Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs approves the electronic travel authorization in 3 business days, removing the historic Moscow or New Delhi embassy detour that used to add two weeks for Turkmen applicants.
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 Turkmen travellers: Apply at least one week before flying from Ashgabat ASB — Turkish Airlines via Istanbul is the primary connection to Phnom Penh, with flydubai and Emirates via Dubai as the main alternative gateways for Turkmen travellers.
From application to email
How Turkmen 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 Turkmen passport details exactly as written in Latin transliteration on the biographical page — do not substitute Cyrillic or modified-Latin variants in any field because the Cambodian Ministry only accepts the transliteration printed on the chip.
01
Pay securely
Upload a recent colour passport-style photo (4×6 cm, white background) — Turkmen national ID photos are accepted only if they match e-Visa specs, otherwise re-shoot at an Ashgabat passport-photo studio.
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 TMT at checkout because Stripe handles the FX from USD to Turkmen manat at the live interbank rate (subject to your bank's outbound payment rules).

eVisa delivered to your email
Approval arrives by email in 3 business days as a printable PDF with QR code — print two copies before leaving ASB, one for the Turkish Airlines or flydubai gate agent and one for the immigration officer at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap-Angkor International.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Turkmen 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 Turkmen 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.
Turkmen leisure travellers heading to Angkor Wat almost always pick the Type T tourist eVisa at $80 USD, while Turkmen professionals in oil, gas, petrochemicals or Phnom Penh-based ASEAN-Central Asia energy meetings should choose the Type E business visa at $90 USD because Type E supports indefinite extensions inside Cambodia — useful for longer regional projects from a small but high-value outbound business segment.
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 Turkmen Citizens
Both options exist for Turkmen 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.
Turkmen travellers typically anchor a Cambodia trip around 3-4 days in Siem Reap for Angkor Wat sunrise tours, the Bayon and Ta Prohm, before adding 2-3 nights in Phnom Penh for the Royal Palace and the riverfront. Turkmen couples often extend with a Sihanoukville or Koh Rong beach stretch inside the 30-day Type T allowance, routed conveniently through Istanbul or Dubai transit hubs.
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.
