What documents do Americans need for the Cambodia Business eVisa?
Five things — the same pack as the Tourist eVisa: a US passport with at least 6 months validity from your date of entry and one full blank page; a recent passport-style photo (white background, no glasses, no smile); a clear scan of your passport bio page; a working email address that accepts PDF attachments; and a payment method — Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. You do NOT need an invitation letter, sponsor, employment contract, or any business paperwork.
Do I need an invitation letter for the Cambodia Business eVisa?
No. This is the biggest misconception about the Type-E. Cambodia does not require an invitation letter from a Cambodian company, a sponsor, an employment contract, or proof of a registered business to apply for the Business eVisa. The application asks for identity and payment only — exactly like the Tourist eVisa. There is nothing to notarize, translate, or courier, so no document costs get layered on top of the $90 fee.
Are the Business eVisa documents different from the Tourist eVisa?
No — they are identical. The Cambodia Business eVisa (Type-E) needs the exact same five items as the Tourist eVisa: a US passport, a passport-style photo, a passport bio-page scan, an email address, and a payment method. The Business eVisa costs $10 more ($90 versus $80), but that buys the in-country extension path, not an extra document. Same form, same photo specs, same 3-business-day approval.
How long must my US passport be valid for the Cambodia Business eVisa?
At least 6 months from your planned date of entry into Cambodia, plus one full blank page for the entry stamp. If your passport expires in October 2026 and you arrive in July, you are fine. If it expires in September and you arrive in July, the airline will deny boarding at the US gate. Routine US passport renewals currently take several weeks, so check the expiry date as soon as you book.
What are the Cambodia Business eVisa photo requirements?
A recent (last 6 months) passport-style photo against a plain white or off-white background. Face fully visible, head centered, neutral expression — no smile, no glasses, no hats. JPEG file under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger. The most common auto-flags are smiles, glasses of any kind, off-white walls, shadows behind the head, and resolution below 600 pixels. A phone photo against a white wall works for most American applicants.
Can I use a personal email for a business trip application?
Yes, and you should. The approved Business eVisa is delivered as a PDF, and many corporate mail systems quarantine or strip PDF attachments from unfamiliar senders, so the approval can land in a security hold you never see. Use a personal Gmail or Outlook address on the application, then forward the PDF to wherever you need it. That avoids the most frustrating delivery problem business travelers hit on the morning they are trying to print.
I am a US green-card holder on a foreign passport — which passport do I use?
You apply on the passport you hold, not on your US residency. The Cambodian eVisa system reads nationality from the passport, and your green card has no bearing on it — your eligibility, fee, and processing follow the passport. The document pack is the same five items, and the $90 Business eVisa fee is identical regardless of which passport you apply on.
اگر میری تصویر یا پاسپورٹ اسکین کو جھنڈا لگا دیا جائے تو کیا ہوگا؟
You get an email with a clear list of what to re-upload — usually a fresh photo against a white wall, or a passport scan without glare. There is no extra charge to fix a flagged Business eVisa: free resubmission is part of the $90 all-in price. Reply quickly and the 3-business-day clock keeps running, so a single retake rarely costs you a delay.
