Turkish passport holders apply for Cambodia online through the electronic visa portal. While Honorary Consulates exist in Istanbul and Ankara, the e-Visa is the default route and works for both leisure travellers and Turkish Airlines passengers on the direct IST-Phnom Penh service.
The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Turkish citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Turkish citizens
Ordinary Turkish passport holders need an eVisa to enter Cambodia, even though diplomatic and service passports are exempt for up to 90 days. The Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs portal issues the Type T tourist visa in about 3 business days, valid for a single 30-day entry. With Turkish Airlines now flying Istanbul-Phnom Penh directly, more Turkish travellers are choosing Cambodia as a standalone trip rather than a stopover.
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.
Turkish diplomatic and official passport holders are exempt for 90 days — but ordinary Turkish passport holders still need an eVisa. Honorary Consulates in Istanbul and Ankara handle some Turkish cases — but the online e-Visa is faster and cheaper for tourist travel. Turkish Airlines' direct IST–PNH route lets Turkish travellers fly in on an approved eVisa with no on-arrival queue. Ordinary Turkish passport holders still need a Cambodia eVisa even though diplomatic passports are exempt.
Tip for Turkish travellers: Don't rely on the diplomatic-passport exemption unless you hold one — ordinary Turkish passports still need a valid eVisa printed and presented at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap immigration.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Turkish 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 Turkish 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.
Choose Type T for an Angkor Wat or Mekong holiday from Turkey; choose Type E (Business) only if an Istanbul or Ankara-based employer is sending you to Cambodia for meetings or trade work, as Type E can later be extended onshore while Type T cannot.
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.
Border entry
Where Turkish Citizens Can Enter Cambodia with Their eVisa

Airport code PNH
Angkor International, Siem Reap
Airport code SAI
Sihanoukville International
Airport code KOS
Arriving by Land
Bavet
Land crossing from Vietnam
Tropaeng Kreal

Smart choice
Cambodia eVisa vs Visa on Arrival for Turkish Citizens
Both options exist for Turkish 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.
Turkish travellers benefit from one of the most direct connections in the region — the Turkish Airlines non-stop between Istanbul and Phnom Penh — making Cambodia an attractive 7-10 day cultural break that combines Angkor Wat, Phnom Penh's riverside and a coastal extension. Many pair it with Bangkok or Singapore on the return leg.
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.

Do Turkish citizens need a visa for Cambodia?

Yes — Turkish diplomatic and official passport holders are visa-exempt for up to 90 days under a bilateral agreement. Ordinary Turkish citizens travelling for tourism or business still need the Type T or Type E e-Visa.

Can Turks get a Cambodia visa on arrival?
Yes — visa on arrival is available to ordinary Turkish passport holders at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville airports for $30-36 USD cash. The e-Visa is preferred because pre-approval avoids airport queues and cash-only complications.
