Cambodia e-Arrival Card Gebühr erklärt für Amerikaner
Die Cambodia e-Arrival Card ist ein separater Schritt von Ihrem eVisum, und ein kleiner — $5 USD, von uns verifiziert, 14 Felder, eingereicht innerhalb von 7 Tagen vor Ihrem Flug. Hier erfahren Sie genau, was diese Gebühr abdeckt, warum sie nicht in Ihren Visumspreis eingerechnet ist, und den Zeitpunkt, der Sie am Gate voranbringt.
How much does the Cambodia e-Arrival Card cost for Americans?
The Cambodia e-Arrival Card is $5 USD verified through us — a separate step from your eVisa, not part of the visa price. It is a short pre-arrival form, 14 fields across three sections, mandatory for every air arrival, and filed within 7 days before you land. Your visa and your e-Arrival Card are two distinct transactions: the Tourist eVisa is $80 USD all-in and the Business eVisa is $90 USD, both approved in 3 business days, and the e-Arrival Card sits on top at $5 USD. You pay the visa fee once when you apply, and the e-Arrival fee once in the week before departure. That is the whole cost picture for an American flying into Cambodia in 2026.
Wichtigste Erkenntnisse
- The e-Arrival Card is a separate step from your eVisa — $5 USD verified through us, never bundled into the visa price.
- It is 14 fields across three sections (you, your trip, customs), and it is mandatory for every air arrival into Cambodia in 2026.
- You file it within 7 days before arrival — not weeks ahead, not at the gate. File too early and it falls outside the window.
- Your visa fee and your e-Arrival fee are two different transactions: the Tourist eVisa is $80 USD all-in, the Business eVisa is $90 USD, and the e-Arrival Card sits on top at $5 USD.
- The $5 verified e-Arrival is delivered as a printable confirmation, checked end-to-end before it reaches Cambodian Immigration, with US-timezone support if a field gets flagged.
Why there are two fees, not one
Most Americans planning a Cambodia trip expect a single visa charge and are then briefly thrown when a second, smaller fee appears for something called the e-Arrival Card. The short version: these are two different things doing two different jobs. Your eVisa is permission to enter the country. Your e-Arrival Card is the pre-arrival declaration — who you are, the flight you are on, where you are staying, and what you are bringing in — that Cambodian Immigration now collects digitally before you land instead of on a paper slip at the desk.
What the $5 USD verified e-Arrival actually covers
The $5 USD covers your verified e-Arrival Card filed and delivered as a printable confirmation, checked end-to-end before it reaches Cambodian Immigration. The card itself is short — 14 fields across three sections — but the fields are the kind that are easy to get subtly wrong, and a flagged card is a problem you discover at the worst possible moment, standing at the immigration desk in Phnom Penh.
The three sections are straightforward once you know what each is asking. The first is about you — passport number, full name exactly as it appears on the bio page, nationality, date of birth. The second is about your trip — flight number, arrival date, the port you are flying into, and your address in Cambodia. The third is the customs declaration — what you are carrying, whether you have anything to declare, the standard arrival questions every country asks. None of it is hard. All of it has to match.
The fee is per traveler
Every air arrival needs their own e-Arrival Card — there is no family card and no group discount. A family of four flying in together files four cards, each at $5 USD, even for infants. Each card is tied to one passport, the same way each eVisa is.
How the e-Arrival fee sits next to your visa cost
These are two separate line items, paid at two separate times, and it helps to see them side by side. Your visa fee is the big one and you pay it once when you apply. Your e-Arrival fee is the small one and you pay it once in the week before you fly. Neither replaces the other, and skipping the e-Arrival because you already paid for the visa is the misunderstanding that gets American travelers pulled aside at the gate.
Häufig gestellte Fragen
How much does the Cambodia e-Arrival Card cost for US citizens?
The e-Arrival Card is $5 USD verified through us. It is a separate step from your eVisa, not part of the visa price, and you pay it once in the week before you fly. The Tourist eVisa is $80 USD all-in and the Business eVisa is $90 USD; the e-Arrival Card sits on top of whichever visa you hold at a flat $5 USD per traveler.
Is the e-Arrival Card included in my Cambodia visa fee?
No. The visa fee and the e-Arrival fee are two separate transactions for two separate steps. The visa is your permission to enter and is approved in 3 business days; the e-Arrival Card is the pre-arrival declaration you file within 7 days before you land. Paying for one does not cover the other, and the e-Arrival Card is mandatory for every air arrival in 2026.
Do I have to pay for the e-Arrival Card for every person in my family?
Yes. Each traveler files their own e-Arrival Card at $5 USD, including children and infants. There is no family card and no group discount — each card is tied to a single passport, the same way each eVisa is. A family of four flying in together files four cards.
When do I pay the e-Arrival Card fee?
You file and pay within 7 days before your arrival in Cambodia. The card is keyed to a specific flight and arrival date, so filing too early can fall outside the window and force a redo. The practical sweet spot is two to three days before you fly, once your flight details are settled.
Is there a rush fee or a late fee on the e-Arrival Card?
No. The e-Arrival Card is a flat $5 USD with no rush tier and no late surcharge. The cost is the same whether you file three days out or the night before. The downside of filing late is not extra money — it is the risk of being pulled aside at the immigration desk to complete it on the spot.
What does the $5 verified e-Arrival fee actually cover?
It covers your e-Arrival Card lodged correctly inside the 7-day window, delivered as a printable confirmation, checked end-to-end before it reaches Cambodian Immigration, with US-timezone support if a field is flagged or your flight changes after you file. The most common slip on American cards is a date-format error, which is exactly what the check catches before it becomes a problem at the gate.
Will I be charged again in Cambodian currency when I arrive?
