2026 میں تیچو انٹرنیشنل ایئرپورٹ (KTI) یا سیام ریپ انگکور انٹرنیشنل ایئرپورٹ (SAI) پر پہنچنا آپ کے پاسپورٹ میں کوئی انک اسٹمپ نہیں ہوتا۔ اس کے بجائے، امیگریشن ایک ڈیجیٹل وزیٹر پاس (V-Pass) جاری کرتی ہے۔ یہاں بتایا گیا ہے کہ یہ کیسے کام کرتا ہے اور آپ کو اسے کیوں رکھنا ضروری ہے۔

The Cambodia V-Pass (Visitor Pass) is an electronic entry record issued by the General Department of Immigration after you clear passport control at Techo International Airport (KTI), Siem Reap Angkor International Airport (SAI), or Sihanoukville (KOS). It replaces the traditional ink passport stamp and confirms your entry date, visa class, and authorised stay until date.
Starting in 2025 and fully rolled out across 2026, Cambodia modernised its airport border clearance by retiring physical rubber arrival stamps at international air terminals. When you land at Techo International Airport (KTI) serving Phnom Penh, Siem Reap Angkor International Airport (SAI), or Sihanoukville International Airport (KOS), the immigration officer no longer stamps an ink entry mark onto a blank page of your passport. Instead, the border control system generates a digital Visitor Pass — officially called the V-Pass.
Because Cambodia now operates three separate digital travel documents, first-time visitors frequently mix them up before departure. Your pre-trip preparation still starts with the Cambodia e-Arrival Card, which collects your customs, health, and arrival declaration within seven days before your flight.
To keep your pre-flight checklist clear, remember the chronological order of the three documents: first comes your Cambodia eVisa (for most non-ASEAN nationalities), second comes your e-Arrival Card QR code, and third comes the V-Pass after you physically step up to the immigration desk in Cambodia. You can also review our side-by-side Cambodia eVisa vs V-Pass comparison for a full breakdown of how pre-travel authorisation differs from your post-arrival entry record.
You cannot apply for a V-Pass from home, and no legitimate website sells a V-Pass before you board your flight. The V-Pass is created automatically inside Cambodia’s border management system at the exact moment an immigration officer clears you into the country.
Whether you fly into Techo International Airport (KTI), which replaced the old Phnom Penh facility in September 2025, or Siem Reap Angkor International Airport (SAI), which replaced the legacy Siem Reap terminal in late 2023, the arrival sequence follows the same four steps. For travellers choosing between the two gateways, see our Techo Airport (KTI) vs Siem Reap Airport (SAI) comparison.
Use an Email Address You Can Access on Airport Wi-Fi
Because your V-Pass is emailed to the address listed on your Cambodia e-Arrival Card, always use an inbox you can open on your phone upon landing. Both KTI and SAI offer complimentary terminal Wi-Fi so you can download the V-Pass PDF before leaving baggage claim.

چاہے آپ کو ٹیچو انٹرنیشنل ایئرپورٹ (KTI) یا سیم ریاپ (SAI) میں روانگی کے دوران کمبوڈیا ای-ارائیول کارڈ (اور کمبوڈیا ای-ویزا) کی ضرورت ہے یا نہیں، یہ ایک سوال پر منحصر ہے: کیا آپ امیگریشن لائن عبور کریں گے؟ یہ ہے ہوائی کنارے کی منتقلی، الگ ٹکٹوں، اور ڈومیسٹک فلائٹس کے لیے 2026 کا مکمل قواعد و ضوابط۔
کمبوڈیا کے سرحدی قواعد 2026 کی طرف بڑھتے ہوئے نمایاں طور پر تبدیل ہو گئے: پنوم پن نے ٹیچو انٹرنیشنل ایئرپورٹ (KTI) کھول دیا، کاغذی سٹیمپس کی جگہ ڈیجیٹل وی-پاس نے لے لی، اور تھائی لینڈ-کمبوڈیا کی تمام زمینی سرحدیں بند ہیں۔ کینیڈین مسافروں کے لیے یہ 2026 کی مکمل داخلہ چیک لسٹ ہے۔
2026 میں کمبوڈیا کی سفر کرنے والے برطانوی شہریوں کو درست کمبوڈیا ویزا اور ڈیجیٹل کمبوڈیا ای-ارائیول کارڈ (CeA) دونوں کی ضرورت ہے۔ یہاں بتایا گیا ہے کہ UK پاسپورٹ ہولڈرز ٹورسٹ (کلاس T) ای ویزا، آرڈینری (کلاس E) ای ویزا، اور تیچو ائیرپورٹ (KTI) یا سیئم ریپ (SAI) پر ویزا آن ارائیول میں سے کیسے انتخاب کر سکتے ہیں۔
Your V-Pass PDF looks like a clean digital certificate bearing the Cambodia General Department of Immigration emblem and a scannable verification QR code. Before walking away from the immigration hall, open the file on your smartphone and verify that every field matches your passport and visa.
If you spot an error on your V-Pass — for instance, if you entered on an Ordinary (Class E) eVisa intending to extend your stay later, but the V-Pass lists Tourist (Class T) — speak to the immigration supervisor desk inside the arrivals hall before passing through customs. Correcting a classification error takes two minutes airside, whereas fixing it days later in Phnom Penh requires a formal visit to the General Department of Immigration.
In the era of paper stamps, hotel receptionists and extension agents simply flipped through your passport until they found the blue or red Cambodian entry ink stamp. In 2026, your passport pages remain blank after an airport arrival, so the V-Pass serves as your sole proof of lawful entry.
Because your V-Pass is sent to the email address entered on your pre-flight arrival declaration, accurate data entry is essential. If your flight is within the next week, you can start your e-Arrival application through our guided portal.
The V-Pass and Cambodia e-Arrival Card are airport systems for air arrivals at KTI, SAI, and KOS. Overland entries from Vietnam (Bavet) or Laos (Trapeang Kreal) still use paper arrival cards and ink passport stamps. Remember that all Thailand–Cambodia land borders (including Poipet and Cham Yeam) remain closed in both directions since 2025, so travellers coming from Thailand must fly into KTI or SAI.
If you cleared immigration at KTI or SAI and cannot find your V-Pass email, check your spam folder first or scan the paper QR slip handed to you by the officer. You can also ask your hotel reception to retrieve your V-Pass record when registering your stay. Need your visa before departure? You can apply for your Cambodia eVisa online in minutes.
