Ghanaian travellers apply for the Cambodia eVisa fully online from Accra — no trip to any embassy, just a 10-minute form, 3 business-day approval, and email delivery before your flight from Kotoka International.
The complete picture of the Cambodia tourist visa and Cambodia e-Visa for Ghanaian citizens: fees, processing time, requirements, and what actually happens at the border.
Cambodia eVisa for Ghanaian citizens
Yes — Ghanaian citizens need a visa for Cambodia. Every Ghana passport holder must obtain either a Type T tourist eVisa or a Type E business electronic visa before travel. The Cambodia online visa is the standard route because Cambodia maintains no embassy or consulate anywhere in Ghana, and the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs processes Ghanaian applications in 3 business days. Ghana is the biggest English-speaking West African source market for Cambodia, and business travel from Accra has grown sharply since 2023.
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 Ghanaian travellers: Apply about a week before flying from Accra Kotoka — long-haul connections through Addis Ababa, Doha, Dubai or Istanbul to Phnom Penh leave little time to fix a passport-number typo after takeoff.
From application to email
How Ghanaian Citizens Apply for a Cambodia eVisa
The Cambodia online visa application takes 4 simple steps — form to inbox in 3 business days. Our team handles everything between paying and printing your approved electronic visa.
Fill your application
Enter your Ghana passport details exactly as they appear on the biographical page — the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs cross-checks middle names and patronymics against the chip data character-for-character.
01
Pay securely
Upload a recent colour passport-style photo on a white background (4x6 cm); Ghanaian voter-card photos and smartphone selfies cropped from holiday photos are rejected by the Cambodian e-Visa system.
02
Expert review & submit
Pay the all-inclusive $80 USD tourist or $90 USD business fee by card — your statement will show the equivalent in GHS at checkout because Stripe handles FX at the live interbank rate.
03
eVisa delivered to your email
Approval lands in your inbox in 3 business days as a PDF with QR code — print two copies before leaving Accra because Cambodian immigration at Phnom Penh and Siem Reap-Angkor International still prefers a physical scan.

Tourist or Business eVisa: Which Should Ghanaian 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 Ghanaian 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.
Ghanaian leisure travellers typically pick the Type T tourist eVisa at $80 USD for Angkor Wat and Siem Reap holidays, but the Type E business visa at $90 USD is growing fast among Ghanaian professionals working on ASEAN-West Africa fintech deals, gold and mining-sector partnerships, and education consultancies in Phnom Penh — Type E supports indefinite extensions, which the Type T does not.
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.

Airport code KOS
Arriving by Land
Bavet

Smart choice
Cambodia eVisa vs Visa on Arrival for Ghanaian Citizens
Both options exist for Ghanaian 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.
Ghanaian couples often anchor their Cambodia trip around 3-4 days in Siem Reap with sunrise temple tours at Angkor Wat plus an Apsara dance dinner, before heading to Phnom Penh for the Royal Palace and Tuol Sleng. Ghanaian families increasingly add a beach extension to Koh Rong or Sihanoukville inside the 30-day Type T allowance, while business travellers extend the trip with a Mekong River day-tour from the capital.
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.

Is there a Cambodian embassy in Ghana?
No — Cambodia maintains no embassy or consulate in Ghana. The nearest Cambodian mission for paper applications is the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Paris, France, roughly 4,000 km from Accra. The Cambodia online visa removes the need to courier passports outside the African Union region.

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 rest covers Ministry of Foreign Affairs submission, error-check and email delivery as a printable PDF with QR code. Your card statement will show the equivalent in GHS at checkout.
How long does Cambodia eVisa processing take for Ghanaians?
Standard processing is 3 business days for Ghanaian applicants. Travellers flying from Accra Kotoka International via Addis Ababa, Doha, Dubai or Istanbul to Phnom Penh should apply about a week before departure for safe buffer time.
Can Ghanaian business travellers use the Type E visa?
Yes — the Type E business eVisa at $90 USD suits Ghanaian professionals visiting Phnom Penh trade partners, mining or fintech meetings, or ASEAN-West Africa investment forums. Type E can be extended indefinitely inside Cambodia, useful for longer regional projects.
How long can Ghanaians stay in Cambodia on the tourist eVisa?
The Type T tourist online visa permits a 30-day stay from the date of entry, with the visa valid 90 days from issue. Ghanaian travellers wanting more time at Angkor Wat, Siem Reap or Sihanoukville beaches can extend once inside Cambodia.
What documents do Ghanaian citizens need for the Cambodia online visa?
A Ghana passport valid 6 months beyond entry with at least 2 blank pages, a colour passport-style photo on white background (4x6 cm), and a card for the $80 USD payment. No flight booking, hotel reservation or embassy interview is required.
Do Ghanaians need the Cambodia e-Arrival form?
Yes — since July 2024 all foreign arrivals including Ghanaian passport holders must submit the e-Arrival form within 7 days before arrival. This is separate from the eVisa and enforced at Phnom Penh, Siem Reap-Angkor and Sihanoukville international airports.
