Cambodia 30-Day vs 90-Day Visa — Which Length Should You Apply For?

Domande frequenti
Can I extend a 30-day tourist visa in Cambodia?
No — the tourist visa is hard-capped at 30 days. If you need longer, leave and re-enter on a new visa, or apply for the business visa from the start and extend in-country.
How do I extend the business visa to 90 days?
Once you are in Cambodia, present your passport at an immigration office or through a local agent and request a 90-day extension. The fee is paid in-country and the extension is stamped into your passport.
What happens if I overstay my 30-day visa?
Daily fines apply from day 31. The fine is collected at exit and increases the longer you overstay. Long overstays can result in deportation and re-entry bans — apply for the right length from the start.
Can I get a true 90-day visa upfront?
The eVisa issues the initial 30 days. The 90-day stay is reached by applying for the business visa and extending it once inside Cambodia. The total stay is the same as if a 90-day visa had been issued upfront.
Do I need to leave Cambodia to renew?
Not for business visa extensions — they happen in-country. Tourist visas must be exited and re-entered on a new visa if you want another 30 days.
Which visa is right for a digital nomad working remotely from Cambodia?
Business visa, with a 6 or 12-month extension once you arrive. It is the only legitimate route for working remotely while based in Cambodia for more than 30 days.
