Quanto Custa um eVisa Turístico do Camboja para Cidadãos Americanos?

What you do NOT have to pay for to qualify

A real part of the Cambodia Tourist eVisa price story is the costs that simply are not there. Americans coming from a Vietnam, Indonesia, or India process often budget for documents and bookings they assume any visa demands. Cambodia asks for none of them at the application stage, which keeps the true cost of qualifying at zero beyond the visa fee itself.

• No return flight ticket. You do not need to book and pay for a flight home before you apply, and you do not need to prove onward travel to a third country.
• No hotel booking. The form asks for an intended address in Cambodia, but a hotel name and city is enough — no paid reservation, no confirmation, no nights-paid evidence.
• No bank statement or proof of funds. Cambodia sets no minimum balance for the Tourist eVisa. There is no payslip request and no employer letter.
• No travel insurance. Insurance is sensible for any trip, but the eVisa application never asks to see a policy, so it is not a cost of qualifying.
• No itinerary or tour booking. You do not need a day-by-day plan or any prepaid tours to be approved.

This matters for the budget because it means the visa price is the visa price. With many destinations, the headline visa fee is the smallest part of a much larger "cost to qualify" — a refundable hotel you book just to satisfy the form, a flight you commit to before you are ready, an insurance policy bought purely as evidence. Cambodia strips all of that out. The $80 USD is the cost of being eligible to enter, not the down payment on a stack of supporting purchases.

Tourist vs Business: the $10 question for Americans

Cambodia issues two eVisa classes, and the price gap between them is smaller than most US travelers expect — $10 USD. The Tourist eVisa is $80 USD all-in; the Business eVisa is $90 USD all-in. Both are approved in 3–5 days and both arrive as a printable PDF by email. So the question is never really about the money. It is about which visa your trip actually needs.

The Tourist eVisa is the right and cheaper choice for genuine leisure — Angkor Wat, the beaches at Sihanoukville and the islands, a Mekong cruise, visiting family, or any vacation that stays under 30 days and does not touch paid work. For the overwhelming majority of Americans flying to Cambodia, that is the trip, and $80 USD is the number.

The Business eVisa earns its extra $10 USD only when the trip is not pure leisure or runs longer than 30 days — meetings, conferences, supplier visits, freelance gigs, or a stay you intend to extend in-country. The Tourist eVisa caps hard at 30 days, and the old tourist auto-extension ended in November 2025, so there is no way to stretch it. If any of that describes your trip, the $10 is not an upsell — it is buying the correct visa class.

Budgeting the full cost of getting into Cambodia

Pull it together and the entry cost for an American on a standard leisure trip is easy to budget because the numbers are fixed and few. For one traveler: $80 USD for the Tourist eVisa, plus $20 USD for the e-Arrival Card, for $100 USD total. There is no departure tax to add at the airport, no on-arrival visa counter to pay at, and no stamp fee on top.

The only variable worth naming is the one outside the visa entirely: if your US card charges a foreign-transaction fee, that adds a small percentage to the charge — typically a dollar or two on an $100 USD total — and that comes from your bank, not from the visa. Use a card with no foreign-transaction fee and even that disappears. Everything else is the flat $100 USD.

Timing, not money, is the thing to manage. The eVisa is valid for 3 months from issue, so you can apply well ahead without the visa expiring before your trip. The smart sequence for most Americans is to apply for the visa once your dates are roughly set, then file the e-Arrival Card inside the final week before departure. That order keeps both forms inside their windows and means the only thing standing between you and the gate is a printed PDF and a QR code on your phone.
