Colombian travellers apply for the Cambodia eVisa online from Bogota in minutes — no Bangkok embassy run, no couriered passports.

The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Colombian citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Colombian citizens
Colombian passport holders need a Cambodia tourist visa (Type T) or business visa (Type E) before arrival, and the electronic visa is the cleanest route since Cambodia has no embassy or consulate in Bogota. Apply online from Bogota, Medellin, Cali or Cartagena with a Colombian credit or debit card; the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs approves most files in 3 business days. The PDF lands in your inbox — print it, fly Avianca or Iberia BOG via Madrid, or American via Miami, and present it at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap.
Cambodia tourist visa $80, Cambodia business visa $90 — 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 Colombian travellers: Colombian travellers from a fast-growing middle-class outbound market should book the BOG–MAD–BKK or BOG–MIA–BKK leg 10–12 weeks ahead and apply for the electronic visa 2–3 weeks before departure. Colombia's expanding interest in Asian agribusiness and trade routes makes a Phnom Penh business stop a natural pairing.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Colombian 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 Colombian 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 — 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 — no embassy visit needed
All-inclusive pricing — 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 Colombian passport holders at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville airports for $30-36 USD cash, but after the long BOG–MAD–BKK or BOG–MIA–BKK routing most travellers prefer the pre-approved electronic visa to walk straight past the queue. Colombian agribusiness, coffee and infrastructure executives heading to Phnom Penh meetings should apply for Type E (business visa) — the eVisa is also accepted at Poipet, Bavet, Cham Yeam and Tropaeng Kreal land borders, useful for multi-country ASEAN itineraries.
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 Colombian Citizens
Both options exist for Colombian travellers. The Cambodia e-Visa beats the Cambodia Visa on Arrival on every dimension that matters — price predictability, queue time, and pre-approval before you fly.
Colombian travellers from Bogota's growing outbound middle-class market — used to the Caribbean coast, the Andes and the Pacific — will find Cambodia a deep archaeological pairing with Angkor Wat's sandstone temples and Tonle Sap's wetlands. The country's coffee culture also matches Colombia's interest in single-origin sourcing, and Phnom Penh's French-colonial boulevards echo Cartagena's old town. Plan 14–16 days to cover Siem Reap, Phnom Penh and the southern coast islands on Koh Rong.
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 2–3 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 — 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 — a perfect 2-day escape from the cities.
Your Cambodia eVisa covers all regions — no internal visa or border crossing required once you're inside the country.
Practical advice from travellers who've been — 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 — small change comes back in Riel.
Best time to visit
November to April (dry season). May to October brings monsoon rains — 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 ($2–3 USD). Most foreign phones work on GSM. Metfone and Smart are the recommended carriers — both have airport kiosks.
Health
No mandatory vaccinations. Hepatitis A and Typhoid are commonly recommended. Drink bottled water only — 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 — 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.

Visa Requirements for Other Southeast Asia Countries
Many Colombian travellers booking a Cambodia visa for Colombian 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 Colombian citizens need a visa for Cambodia?
Yes — Colombian 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 Bogotá since Cambodia has no embassy in Colombia.
Is there a Cambodian embassy in Colombia?
No — Cambodia maintains no embassy or consulate in Colombia. The nearest Cambodian missions for paper visa applications are the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Washington DC and Bangkok, which is why the e-Visa is overwhelmingly preferred by Colombian travellers from Bogotá, Medellín and Cali.
Is a yellow fever vaccination certificate required for Colombians entering Cambodia?
Yes — Colombia is on Cambodia's yellow fever transmission risk list, 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 should travel with the e-Visa printout — most Colombian travellers from Amazonas or Llanos regions already hold it.
How much is the Cambodia eVisa for Colombian 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 remainder covers Ministry submission, error-check and email delivery. USD is widely understood for international transactions in Colombia and your card statement will show the equivalent in COP at checkout.
How long does the Cambodia visa take for Colombian passport holders?
Standard processing is 3 business days for Colombian applicants. The Bogotá-Phnom Penh route is among the longest in the world, typically via Madrid, Amsterdam, Doha or Dubai to Bangkok, so applying 2-3 weeks before departure leaves buffer time for Avianca and partner connections.
How long can Colombians 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 itself valid 90 days from issue. Colombian travellers wanting longer trips around Angkor Wat can extend once inside Cambodia through the General Department of Immigration in Phnom Penh.
What documents do Colombian citizens need for the Cambodia eVisa?
A Colombian 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, even for the long-haul itinerary from Bogotá-El Dorado.
Do Colombians need the Cambodia e-Arrival form?
Yes — every foreign visitor including Colombian passport holders must submit the e-Arrival form within 7 days before arrival. The form is in English, separate from the e-Visa, and replaces the old paper arrival card at all Cambodian international airports.
