There are no additional charges on the official site.

Hidden Costs Most Indians Miss
Angkor Archaeological Park entry fees
The Angkor pass is mandatory to enter any of the Angkor temples in Siem Reap. 1-day pass: USD 37 (Rs 3,100). 3-day pass: USD 62 (Rs 5,200). 7-day pass: USD 72 (Rs 6,050). Most Indian visitors get the 3-day pass. Buy only at the official Angkor Enterprise ticket office — avoid any touts or middlemen who claim to sell discounted passes. Tickets are biometric — your photo is taken at purchase. Budget the Angkor pass separately and clearly when planning your Siem Reap trip.
Tuk-tuk full day hire for Angkor temples
Angkor complex is enormous — the temples are spread over 400 square kilometres. Walking between temples is not practical. A tuk-tuk driver hired for a full day costs USD 15 to USD 25 (Rs 1,260 to Rs 2,100) and takes you to all major temples on your chosen circuit. Book a driver at your hotel the night before — most hotels have recommendations. This cost is per tuk-tuk, not per person, so it is much cheaper for groups.
Phnom Penh killing fields and Tuol Sleng entry fees
The Choeung Ek Genocidal Center (Killing Fields) entry: USD 15 (Rs 1,260) including audio guide. Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21 prison): USD 15. Both are essential visits for understanding Cambodian history but are not free. Budget separately if Phnom Penh is on your itinerary.
USD is the primary currency — exchange matters
Cambodia uses USD for most transactions alongside Cambodian Riel for small change. USD is accepted everywhere. Indian Rupees are not accepted. Exchange INR to USD in India before traveling — rates at Phnom Penh or Siem Reap airports are acceptable but slightly worse than in the city. ATMs in both cities dispense USD. Avoid exchanging at hotels.
Siem Reap to Phnom Penh transport
The overland bus from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh takes 5 to 6 hours and costs USD 10 to USD 15 (Rs 840 to Rs 1,260) on Giant Ibis or Mekong Express — the most reliable operators. A domestic flight takes 45 minutes and costs USD 50 to USD 80 (Rs 4,200 to Rs 6,720). Budget this transfer separately if visiting both cities. Avoid night buses on this route.
Koh Rong boat transfer from Sihanoukville
Koh Rong island is a major draw — pristine beaches, bioluminescent plankton at night. Ferry from Sihanoukville to Koh Rong: approximately USD 20 to USD 25 return (Rs 1,680 to Rs 2,100). The ferry takes 45 minutes. Koh Rong accommodation prices are higher than mainland Cambodia. Budget the boat and island stay separately if including a beach segment in your trip.
What Agents Are Actually Doing
Every rupee above Rs 3,025 that a visa agent charges is for filling the same form available at the official portal. There is no special relationship with the Cambodia government, no faster processing, no reduced rejection risk. Apply at https://www.evisa.gov.kh/ and save Rs 3,000 to Rs 8,000.
6 Ways to Reduce Your Cambodia Trip Cost
1
Apply e-visa yourself at evisa.gov.kh — never use an agent
The official Cambodia e-visa costs USD 36 at evisa.gov.kh. Third-party sites charge USD 50 to USD 80 for the same visa. Agents in India charge Rs 2,000 to Rs 5,000. Apply yourself in 15 minutes and save the entire markup. The official site is straightforward — no agent adds any value here.
2
Eat at local Khmer restaurants — not tourist strip
Rice and fish amok at a local restaurant near the Old Market in Siem Reap: USD 3 to USD 5 (Rs 250 to Rs 420). Same dish on Pub Street: USD 8 to USD 12 (Rs 670 to Rs 1,000). Cambodian food is excellent and cheap when eaten where locals eat — just walk one block off the tourist strip. In Phnom Penh, the Russian Market (Toul Tom Poung) area has excellent cheap food stalls.
3
Get the 3-day Angkor pass — not 1-day
The 1-day Angkor pass is USD 37. The 3-day pass is USD 62 — just USD 25 more for two extra days. Angkor complex has over 100 temples. You cannot meaningfully see the main temples in one day, especially during midday heat. The 3-day pass lets you visit at sunrise (Angkor Wat at sunrise is one of the world’s great travel experiences), avoid the midday crowds, and reach the further temples like Banteay Srei and Beng Mealea. The marginal cost is tiny.
4
Take the bus from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh
Giant Ibis bus between Siem Reap and Phnom Penh: USD 13 to USD 15 (Rs 1,090 to Rs 1,260). Clean, air-conditioned, reliable, 5.5 hours, USB charging. Domestic flight: USD 50 to USD 80. For a trip where every hour you save means less time at temples or museums, the savings don’t justify the flight for most travelers. Take the bus for the daytime route.
5
Carry exact USD cash for VoA — avoid the change hassle
If using Visa on Arrival, bring USD 35 in clean bills. If you pay USD 50, change comes in Cambodian Riel which you may not need. Exact change saves time at a busy VoA counter. If applying e-visa (recommended), no cash needed at immigration at all.
6
Use a zero-forex card for all Cambodia spending
Cambodia’s USD economy makes it straightforward. A Niyo Global or IDFC FIRST WOW zero-forex card used at Cambodian ATMs or card terminals saves 1 to 3.5% versus standard Indian Visa or Mastercard. On a Rs 45,000 Cambodia trip that is Rs 450 to Rs 1,575 in unnecessary fees.
7
Visit Angkor Wat at sunrise on your first temple day
Sunrise at Angkor Wat requires arriving by 5:30 AM. The reflection in the moat before sunrise, then the golden light on the towers as it rises, is one of Southeast Asia’s iconic experiences. It is free — included in your Angkor pass. This does not cost anything extra but requires your tuk-tuk driver to start early. Ask your hotel to arrange this the night before. Seeing it first thing means the rest of day 1 is free for other temples.

Common Mistakes Cambodia Travelers Wish They Had Known
Booking non-refundable flights before getting visa approval. The e-visa takes 3 business days but can extend during Vietnamese public holidays. Always wait for the approval email before booking flights you cannot cancel.
Using a travel agent for the e-visa. Agents in India charge Rs 3,000 to Rs 8,000 to fill a 15-minute form available at the official portal for Rs 3,025. The visa you receive is identical. Apply at https://www.evisa.gov.kh/ directly.
Printing only one copy of the approval letter. You need it at two points: the check-in counter at the Indian airport, and Cambodia immigration on arrival. Print two copies and carry both.
Arriving at the airport with only a phone screen. Some immigration counters in Cambodia do not accept phone screens. Physical printed copies are always accepted. Print before you leave home.
Choosing the wrong entry type. Single entry (Rs 3,025) is right for a Vietnam-only trip. Multiple entry (check visa types table for Cambodia fee) is needed if you plan to exit to Cambodia or Laos and return. Confirm which you need before paying.
