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.
