Cambodia eVisa for Australian citizens
Yes — Australian citizens need a visa for Cambodia. Every Australian passport holder must obtain either a Type T tourist online visa or a Type E business electronic visa before flying, exactly as smartraveller.gov.au recommends. The Cambodia electronic visa is approved by the Cambodian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 3–5 days and is valid for arrival at Techo International Airport (KTI) in Phnom Penh (which replaced PNH in September 2025), Siem Reap Angkor International (SAI) and Sihanoukville International (KOS) airports, as well as the open Bavet (Vietnam) and Trapeang Kreal / Dom Kralor (Laos) land borders (all Thailand–Cambodia land crossings including Poipet and Cham Yeam are closed).
Cambodia tourist visa $80, Cambodia business visa $90 — both prices are all-inclusive. Upload your passport bio page, 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
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.
Per smartraveller.gov.au: maintain a passport valid 6 months past your planned arrival in Cambodia. Australian backpackers can also use the eVisa at the Poipet (Thailand) land border — much smoother than the visa-on-arrival queue. After a long-haul flight from Australia, Australian travellers appreciate skipping the visa-on-arrival queue at Phnom Penh with a pre-approved eVisa.

Why you're going
Things to Do in Cambodia for Australian Travelers
Australian backpackers love flying Bangkok to Siem Reap (the Poipet land border has been closed since 2025), then floating down to Phnom Penh and the southern coast for Koh Rong island time. Aussie couples and families increasingly fly direct via Singapore into Siem Reap, basing themselves there for 4-5 days at Angkor Wat before heading to Kep or Kampot.
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.

Booked our Siem Reap trip last minute and needed the eVisa fast. Applied Sunday night, had it in my inbox Wednesday morning. Form was honestly 10 minutes and I never had to ring an embassy.
Liam · Sydney, NSW
★★★★★
Did the Bangkok-to-Siem Reap overland with the kids. eVisa was accepted at Poipet no questions asked. Worth every cent over messing about with cash USD at the land border.
Marcus · Brisbane, QLD
★★★★☆
Solid service. Applied on a Friday, approved by Wednesday — bang on the 3-day promise. The eVisa was perfect, printed beautifully, and Cambodian immigration at Siem Reap waved us through in under a minute.
Hannah · Perth, WA
★★★★★
Business trip to Phnom Penh for a mining contractor meet. Got the Type E in 2 days, no embassy run from Adelaide, and the receipt was clean for my expense claim. Will use again next quarter.
