How do US citizens apply for the Cambodia Business eVisa?
US citizens apply for the Cambodia Business eVisa (Type-E) online in about ten minutes. Select the Business visa class, then upload five items: a US passport with at least 6 months validity, a plain-white-background passport-style photo, a clear scan of your passport bio page, a working email address, and a payment method. There is no sponsor letter, employment contract, or company invitation to provide. The fee is $90 USD all-in, the visa is approved in 3 business days, and it arrives as a printable PDF by email. The application is the same short form as the Tourist eVisa — the only practical difference is choosing Type-E at the start.
نکات کلیدی
- The Cambodia Business eVisa (Type-E) application is the same short online form as the Tourist eVisa — five items, roughly ten minutes, $90 USD all-in, approved in 3 business days.
- No sponsor letter, employment contract, or company invitation is required to apply — unusual for a regional business visa, and one of the things that most surprises US travelers.
- You need a US passport with 6 months validity, a plain-white-background photo, a bio-page scan, a working email, and a payment method (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay).
- Select Type-E (Business) when you start — applying as a Tourist by mistake means a fresh application, since visa-class conversion is not supported inside Cambodia.
- The Cambodia e-Arrival Card is still separate and mandatory: 14 fields, $5 USD verified through us, submitted within 7 days before you fly. Every air arrival files it.
What the Business eVisa application actually involves
- Select Business (Type-E)
On the first screen choose the Business visa class, not Tourist — visa-class conversion is not supported inside Cambodia.
- Enter passport and personal details
Type your name, passport number, and expiry exactly as printed on the bio page to avoid a machine-readable-zone mismatch.
- Upload photo and bio-page scan
Add a plain-white-background passport-style photo and a clear scan of your passport bio page.
- Add travel details
Enter your arrival date and airport (KTI, SAI, or KOS); the date is not binding since the eVisa is valid 3 months from issue.
- Review, pay, and submit
Check every field against your passport, then pay the $90 USD all-in fee by card or wallet and submit.
- Receive your approved PDF
The Business eVisa is approved in 3 business days and arrives as a printable PDF by email.
Before you start: the five things to have ready
- US passport — at least 6 months validity from your planned date of arrival in Cambodia, with at least one full blank page for the entry stamp. If it expires inside that 6-month window, renew before you apply; the airline will deny boarding at the US gate otherwise.
- Digital passport-style photo — plain white background, taken in the last 6 months, no glasses, no hats, neutral expression, no smile. JPEG, under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger. A phone photo against a white wall is fine.
- Clear scan or phone photo of your passport bio page — both edges visible, no glare on the laminate, every line of text and the machine-readable zone legible.
- Working email address — the approval PDF arrives here, so use a personal inbox that accepts PDF attachments rather than a corporate one that may strip them.
- Payment method — Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. Make sure the card is cleared for international online transactions before you begin.
سوالات متداول
How do US citizens apply for the Cambodia Business eVisa?
Online, in about ten minutes. Select the Business (Type-E) visa class, enter your passport and personal details exactly as printed, upload a white-background photo and a clear bio-page scan, add your arrival date and airport, then pay the $90 USD all-in fee with a card or digital wallet. The visa is approved in 3 business days and arrives as a printable PDF by email. It is the same short form as the Tourist eVisa — the only practical difference is choosing Type-E at the start.
Do I need a sponsor letter or company invitation to apply?
No. The Cambodia Business eVisa is unusual among regional business visas for requiring zero corporate documentation. No sponsor letter, no employment contract, no formal invitation from a Cambodian company, no return flight, no hotel booking, no bank statement. The application pack is identical to the Tourist eVisa: passport, photo, bio-page scan, email, and payment. That surprises Americans coming from heavier processes like the Vietnam DN visa or the Thailand Non-B.
How much does the Cambodia Business eVisa cost?
The Business eVisa is $90 USD all-in, with no separate airport surcharge and free resubmission if Immigration flags a correction. The Tourist eVisa is $80 USD by comparison — a $10 difference for a visa class that allows business activity and can be extended in-country. Any in-country extension (1, 3, 6, or 12 months) is arranged separately through a Cambodian immigration agent after you arrive and is not part of this online application.
How long does the Business eVisa take to approve?
It is approved in 3 business days and delivered as a printable PDF by email. Business days matter: applications submitted on a Friday afternoon or over a weekend start their clock on the next working day, and Cambodian public holidays such as Khmer New Year and Pchum Ben extend the window. Apply at least a week before you fly if your trip is close, and reply quickly if Immigration emails asking for a correction so the clock keeps running.
What if I selected Tourist instead of Business by mistake?
Visa-class conversion is not supported inside Cambodia, so you cannot upgrade a Tourist eVisa to a Business one after the fact. If you have already been approved on the wrong class and your trip needs the Business visa, you would apply fresh on Type-E. The cleanest fix is to catch it at the review step before you pay — selecting the right class on the first screen is the single most important step in the application.
