Step 01Boarding Point

Cambodia Visa

If you're excited about your upcoming trip to Cambodia, we have some helpful tips to ensure a smooth arrival! First, check whether you need a visa on arrival—our friendly crew attendants will be available to assist you at the border. A tourist visa costs $35, while a business visa is $45. Although these fees might seem a bit high, they are certainly worth it! Additionally, we will charge a $5 service fee for batch processing at the border. If you prefer to handle your visa yourself, that's perfectly fine! Just keep in mind that it may take longer, and our bus can only wait for a limited time. Don't forget to print your e-visa before you board! If you don't have access to a printer, don't worry—our bus terminals and offices offer free printing services. Here's to amazing adventures and unforgettable experiences in Cambodia! Safe travels.
