Glasses in a Cambodia eVisa Photo: 2026 Rules for Aussies

کلیدی ٹیک ویز

• Cambodia's 2026 eVisa photo rule: glasses off. Prescription, reading, tinted, photochromic, transition lenses — all come off for the thirty-second shoot.
• If you submit with glasses on, the application gets flagged for resubmission. Free resubmission if Immigration flags a correction, but you lose 1 to 2 business days off your processing window.
• Reflections and lens glare are the validator's main concern — even a thin clear frame at the wrong angle can bounce. The fix is to remove the glasses, not to angle them.
• Contact-lens wearers can keep their contacts in (Cambodia's rule is on rigid eyewear, not on vision correction generally).
• Australian Specsavers and OPSM stores both offer walk-in passport photos for around $20 to $25 AUD if you genuinely cannot manage the shoot without glasses at home — and the staff know to take them off for the shot.
• High-prescription Aussies can squint to focus, get a partner to count down, then open eyes wide for the half-second the shutter fires.
