The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Ecuadorian citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Ecuadorian citizens
Ecuadorian passport holders need a Cambodia tourist visa (Type T) or business visa (Type E) before arrival, and the electronic visa is the only practical option since Cambodia has no embassy or consulate in Quito. Apply online from Quito, Guayaquil or Cuenca with a credit or debit card; the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs approves most files in 3 business days. The PDF arrives by email โ print it, fly UIO via Miami or Madrid, and present it at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap on arrival.
Cambodia tourist visa $80, Cambodia business visa $90 โ 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 Ecuadorian travellers: Ecuadorian travellers benefit from the country's USD currency โ there's no exchange-rate conversion on the $80 USD eVisa fee, so the price you see is the price you pay. Book the UIOโMIAโBKK or UIOโMADโBKK leg 10โ12 weeks ahead and apply for the electronic visa 2โ3 weeks before departure.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Ecuadorian 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 Ecuadorian 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 โ 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 โ no embassy visit needed
All-inclusive pricing โ government processing fee, expert review, photo optimisation, and e-Arrival guidance bundled in. No surprises at the border.
Cambodia visa on arrival is available to Ecuadorian passport holders at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville airports for $30-36 USD cash, but after the long UIOโMIAโBKK or UIOโMADโBKK routing most travellers prefer the pre-approved electronic visa to skip the on-arrival queue. The eVisa is also accepted at Poipet, Bavet, Cham Yeam and Tropaeng Kreal land borders, useful for Ecuadorian visitors combining Cambodia with Thailand or Vietnam in a single ASEAN trip.
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 Ecuadorian Citizens
Both options exist for Ecuadorian travellers. The Cambodia e-Visa beats the Cambodia Visa on Arrival on every dimension that matters โ price predictability, queue time, and pre-approval before you fly.
Ecuadorian travellers used to the Galapagos, the Amazon and the Andes will find Cambodia a deep archaeological pairing โ Angkor Wat's sandstone temples and Tonle Sap's freshwater wetlands echo the same conservation-and-civilisation aesthetic that draws visitors to Quito's old town and the Amazon basin. Plan 14โ16 days to cover Angkor Wat at sunrise, Phnom Penh's Royal Palace and riverfront, and a southern coast stretch on Koh Rong or Kep.
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 2โ3 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 โ 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 โ a perfect 2-day escape from the cities.
Your Cambodia eVisa covers all regions โ no internal visa or border crossing required once you're inside the country.
Practical advice from travellers who've been โ 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 โ small change comes back in Riel.
Best time to visit
November to April (dry season). May to October brings monsoon rains โ 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 ($2โ3 USD). Most foreign phones work on GSM. Metfone and Smart are the recommended carriers โ both have airport kiosks.
Health
No mandatory vaccinations. Hepatitis A and Typhoid are commonly recommended. Drink bottled water only โ 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 โ 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.

Many Ecuadorian travellers booking a Cambodia visa for Ecuadorian citizens combine their trip with neighbouring countries. Here's what you need to know about visas for nearby Southeast Asia destinations.
Everything left to know before you apply for your Cambodia tourist visa or Cambodia e-Visa. If your question isn't here, our team replies via WhatsApp or email within minutes.
Do Ecuadorian citizens need a visa for Cambodia?
Yes โ Ecuadorian passport holders need a Type T tourist visa or Type E business visa for any stay. The Cambodia electronic visa is approved by the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 3 business days and is the only practical route from Quito since Cambodia has no embassy in Ecuador.
Is there a Cambodian embassy in Ecuador?
No โ Cambodia maintains no embassy or consulate in Ecuador. The nearest Cambodian missions for paper visa applications are in Washington DC and Bangkok, which is why the e-Visa is the standard route for Ecuadorian citizens from Quito, Guayaquil and Cuenca.
Is a yellow fever vaccination certificate required for Ecuadorians visiting Cambodia?
Yes โ Ecuador is on Cambodia's yellow fever transmission risk list (particularly the Amazon basin and coastal provinces), so a valid WHO-format vaccination certificate is mandatory on arrival at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap or Sihanoukville. The certificate is now valid for life under WHO rules and must accompany the e-Visa printout.
How much is the Cambodia eVisa for Ecuadorian citizens?
Our service charges $80 USD for the Type T tourist eVisa and $90 USD for the Type E business eVisa. The Cambodian government fee alone is $30 USD; the rest covers Ministry submission, error-check and email delivery. Ecuador uses USD as its official currency, so there is no currency conversion at checkout.
How long does the Cambodia visa take for Ecuadorian passport holders?
Standard processing is 3 business days for Ecuadorian applicants. Travellers flying from Quito-Mariscal Sucre via Madrid, Amsterdam, Bogotรก or Miami to Doha then Bangkok should apply at least 2 weeks before departure to give buffer time on the long-haul connection.
How long can Ecuadorians stay in Cambodia on the tourist eVisa?
The Type T tourist online visa allows a 30-day stay from the date of entry, with the visa valid 90 days from issue. Ecuadorian travellers wanting longer trips around Siem Reap or Angkor Wat can extend once inside Cambodia through the General Department of Immigration.
What documents do Ecuadorian citizens need for the Cambodia online visa?
An Ecuadorian passport valid 6 months beyond entry, a colour passport-style photo, a yellow fever vaccination certificate, and a card for the $80 USD payment. No flight booking, hotel reservation or in-person consular step is required for the Cambodia electronic visa.
Do Ecuadorians need the Cambodia e-Arrival form?
Yes โ every foreign visitor including Ecuadorian passport holders must submit the e-Arrival form within 7 days before arrival. It is in English, separate from the e-Visa, and replaces the old paper arrival card at all Cambodian international airports.
