Cambodia eVisa Blank-Page Rule for Australians in 2026: 2 Facing Pages, Counted Properly
Cambodia wants 2 facing blank pages at Immigration on arrival in 2026, and the rule trips up well-travelled Aussies more often than any other document check. Here is how to count pages properly, why the 'endorsements' section does not save you, and the DFAT renewal workaround for last-minute travellers.
How many blank passport pages do Australians need for the Cambodia eVisa in 2026?
Two facing blank pages in your Australian passport at Cambodian Immigration on arrival — and they have to be inside the visa section, not the back-of-passport 'Pages reserved for endorsements' area. The rule applies whether you arrived on a Tourist or Business eVisa, and Cambodian Immigration officers at KTI, SAI and KOS do check before they stamp. Well-travelled Aussies get caught by this more than any other document rule because Schengen, Indian and Indonesian stamps eat pages faster than you remember. If your count is short, the only clean fix before flight is a DFAT renewal — priority is roughly 2 business days for around $251 AUD on top of the standard adult fee.
主なポイント
- Cambodian Immigration wants 2 facing blank pages at the arrival counter in 2026, regardless of whether you arrived on a Tourist or Business eVisa.
- 'Blank pages' and 'unused pages' are not the same — the back-of-passport section labelled 'Pages reserved for endorsements' does not count for entry stamps.
- Count the genuinely empty pages in the visa section of your passport before you book the trip, not the night before you fly.
- If you are short on pages, DFAT priority renewal (~2 business days, ~$251 AUD uplift) is the workaround that saves the trip.
- A new passport means a new passport number, which means re-applying for the eVisa against the new number before you fly.
Why the blank-page rule trips up well-travelled Aussies in 2026
Most Aussies who get bumped at Cambodian Immigration in 2026 are not bumped because the eVisa is wrong, or the photo is wrong, or the 6-month validity is wrong. They are bumped because there is nowhere clean for the officer to land the entry stamp. Cambodian Immigration wants two facing blank pages — a left-hand page and a right-hand page next to each other — and well-travelled Aussies with Schengen entries, an Indian e-Visa sticker, an Indonesian arrival stamp, a Japan landing stamp and a UK chop on every other spread genuinely do not have that pair sitting empty by the time they fly.
The rule itself is not subtle. The officer flips the passport open at the visa section, scans for a clean spread, and stamps. If there is no clean spread, the conversation gets quieter and the queue stops moving. Cambodia is one of the easier countries in the region to enter on paper, but the page count is one of the genuinely strict checks at the arrival counter. Officers at Techo International (KTI), Siem Reap-Angkor (SAI) and Sihanoukville (KOS) all run the same standard.

「白紙ページ」の意味（そして「未使用」が罠である理由）
まず理解すべきことは、カンボジア移民局は未使用ページではなく白紙ページをカウントすることです。この2つの表現は听起来同じですが、実際には異なります。オーストラリアのパスポートには、真ん中にビザ欄があります—そこには入国税印とビザ스티ッカーが貼られます—そして裏側に「 Pages reserved for endorsements」と書かれた小さなセクションがあります。 endorsements セクションは構造的にビザ欄と似ており、一見同じに見えますが、カンボジア移民官はそこにスタンプを押しません。
オーストラリア护照の裏側にをめくって3枚の清潔なページを見つけ、ビザ欄にはゼロしかない場合、カンボジア用の3枚の白紙ページを持っているわけではありません。ゼロです。 endorsement ページはDFATが 공식注釈とビザ相当的アノテーションのために予約しており、カンボジア移民局は到着スタンプのためにそれらをオフリミッツとして扱います。官员は您をsecondary 列に戻し、適切なビザ欄のページを求めますが、それらはなく、ここから проблем начинается。
今夜、自分でパスポートの 页数を数える方法
良い照明の下でテーブルに座り、オーストラリアのパスポートを開き、ビザ欄を1ページずつゆっくりとめくります。別の紙に柔らかい鉛筆でチェック印をつけます—パスポート自体には書きません—スタンプ、スティッカー、手書きの endorsement、またはパンチ穴のメモが完全にないすべてのページに。注意を払うべき詳細：向かい合う中央の折り目を挟んで向かい合う2枚の白紙ページは向かい合うペアとしてカウントされます、これがカンボジア移民局が求めるものです。スタンプを押されたページで隔てられた2枚の単独の白紙ページは、合計で2枚の白紙であっても、向かい合うペアではありません。
もう一つの詳細で一部のオーストラリア人が 见落とすること：インドのe-Visaやベトナムビザのステッカーは全书面を占有し、多くの旅行者が旅行が終わった後もステッカーがまだ残っていることを忘れています最後の大きな旅行がインドシナやシェンゲンだった場合、2枚または3枚のページが意識的にカウントしていなかったステッカーで消えた可能性は現実的です。関連する6か月のルールをカバーするCambodia eVisa passport validity rules guideは、多くの場合、ページカウントと同じ時期に Surface します。
よくある質問
How many blank pages do I need for Cambodia in 2026?
Two facing blank pages — a left-hand and right-hand page next to each other across the same spread — in the visa section of your Australian passport. The rule applies to every air arrival at KTI, SAI and KOS regardless of whether you arrived on a Tourist or Business eVisa, and Cambodian Immigration officers do check before they stamp.
What is the difference between 'blank pages' and 'unused pages'?
Australian passports have a main visa section and a back-of-passport area labelled 'Pages reserved for endorsements'. Cambodian Immigration counts only the blank pages in the visa section. The endorsements pages are reserved by DFAT for official annotations and are not accepted as entry-stamp space at the Cambodian arrival counter, even though they look identical to the visa-section pages at a glance.
Do the two blank pages need to be facing?
Cambodian Immigration prefers a facing pair — two blanks next to each other across the same spread — and that is the safest standard to plan against. Two single blanks scattered through the visa section usually pass, but at officer's discretion rather than as of right. If your passport has facing pairs available, plan to land on those. If only scattered blanks are available, the chance of a secondary review goes up.
What happens if I arrive in Cambodia without enough blank pages?
The Cambodian Immigration officer will set your passport aside and route you to the secondary holding area. A supervisor will review the passport, the eVisa printout, and the e-Arrival confirmation. Most commonly they will find a borderline page to stamp on the edge of and release you. Less commonly they will refuse entry and put you on a return flight. The risk is real even when it is not the most likely outcome.
Can DFAT add extra pages to my Australian passport?
No. DFAT discontinued the additional-pages service years ago. The only way to get a fresh visa section is a full new passport renewal. Standard renewal is roughly 3 weeks at around $325 AUD. Priority renewal is roughly 2 business days at around $251 AUD on top of the standard fee, applied for in person at a passport office.
My passport has 4 blank pages in the back endorsements section. Is that enough for Cambodia?
No, on its own that is not enough. Cambodian Immigration counts only the blank pages in the visa section, not the back-of-passport endorsements area. If your visa section has zero blanks and your endorsements section has four, the practical count for Cambodia entry is zero. Plan a DFAT renewal before the trip if that is your situation.
