The Cambodia online visa application is fast, secure, and 100% online — from form to inbox in 3 business days.
Step 1
Fill your application
Enter your New Zealand passport details exactly as printed on the biographical page — Māori macron-bearing names (ā, ē, ī, ō, ū) must match the MRZ Latin transliteration on the chip, so use the unaccented version printed in the machine-readable zone.
Step 2
Pay securely
Upload a recent colour passport-style photo on a white background; older NZ driver-licence portraits and tramping-trip holiday photo crops are rejected by the Cambodian e-Visa system at Ministry of Foreign Affairs review.
Step 3

Approval lands in your inbox in 3 business days as a PDF with QR code — print two copies before leaving New Zealand, one for the Singapore Airlines or Qantas desk at AKL, WLG or CHC and one for the immigration officer at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap-Angkor International.

Things to Do in Cambodia for New Zealander Travelers
Kiwi travellers used to tramping, scenic-roadtrip and Pacific-island routine find a natural rhythm exploring Cambodia after their long-haul flight from AKL or WLG. Most New Zealand couples anchor 3-4 days in Siem Reap for the Angkor Wat sunrise circuit and Ta Prohm, drop down to Phnom Penh by Mekong cruise and finish on Koh Rong or Koh Rong Samloem — a temples-and-islands arc that fits easily inside the 30-day Type T window. Kiwi backpackers on a longer trail typically pair Cambodia with Vietnam and Laos overland, using Poipet from Bangkok or Bavet from Ho Chi Minh City.
Your Cambodia eVisa covers all regions — no internal visa or border crossing required once you're inside the country.
Cambodia Travel Tips for New Zealander Citizens
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.
