Cambodia and Thailand both welcome most travellers easily, but the routes look different. Cambodia uses a paid eVisa or Visa on Arrival for most nationalities; Thailand grants visa-free entry to many of the same passports for short tourist stays. Here is the side-by-side for trip planning.

For most Australian, UK, US, EU, Canadian and NZ passports, only Cambodia needs to be sorted in advance. Thailand is granted at the border under the visa-exemption scheme. Always confirm your passport is currently visa-exempt for Thailand before you fly.
Thailand is slightly easier for visa-exempt nationalities because there is no fee or online step. Cambodia is straightforward if you sort the eVisa online — both countries process tourists in volume every day without drama.
Yes — Poipet and Koh Kong are the busiest crossings. Your Cambodia eVisa is accepted at both. If you only have Visa on Arrival you will need USD cash and a passport photo at the Cambodian side.
Cambodia tourist stays are 30 days single entry. Thailand visa exemption is typically 60 days for eligible nationalities and can be extended by 30 days at a Thai immigration office. Confirm your passport length for both stays.
No. Both Cambodia and Thailand removed pandemic-era health requirements. Standard tourist documentation is the only entry condition.
Apply for the Cambodia eVisa first — it has a lead time and pre-approval requirement. Thailand handles itself at the border for most travellers, so leave it for last.
