Our guide to the Cambodia visa from Australia
Australian nationals need a visa for Cambodia. The simplest option is the tourist e-Visa, applied for online before departure on the official portal.
This guide is for Australian citizens planning to discover Cambodia, from the temples of Angkor to Phnom Penh or the Sihanoukville coast. Cambodia issues an electronic visa (e-Visa) through its government portal, and the application is completed entirely online. A visa on arrival is offered at some entry points, but the e-Visa lets you skip the airport queues.
Do you need a visa?
Yes: Australian travellers are not visa-exempt for Cambodia and get a visa on arrival or a tourist e-Visa. You apply online at evisa.gov.kh before departure. The passport must remain valid for at least 6 months.
How much does a visa for Cambodia cost from Australia?
The official fee for a visa for Cambodia is not published in a source we can verify. Check the amount on the official portal before paying anything, third-party sites often add service fees on top.
Cambodia e-Visa, applied for online before departure: 30 USD.

Documents and fees
Prepare an Australian passport valid for at least 6 months with blank pages, a recent passport photo and an address of stay in Cambodia. The fee and validity period are set by the official portal, check them when you apply on evisa.gov.kh.

Another route is open to your nationality: Cambodia e-Visa, applied for online before departure.
How and where to apply
Apply from Australia on the official portal evisa.gov.kh: open an application, upload a photo and a copy of your passport, then pay online. Some international airports also grant a visa on arrival, but confirm your eligibility and favour the e-Visa for a smoother arrival.
Where do you apply for a visa for Cambodia from Australia?
A visa on arrival for Cambodia is issued at the border post itself, at a counter placed before immigration control.
- Not every crossing issues it. Confirm that your specific airport or land border does before you book.
- The counter is reached after landing and before immigration. Follow the visa signs rather than the exit.
- The fee is usually paid on the spot, sometimes in cash and in a specific currency. Card is not guaranteed.
Using an online service
You never have to use an intermediary. If you would rather have a service fill in and file the application online for you before departure, iVisa does it for a service fee, charged on top of the official fees. It does not change the decision.

You live in Australia on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Australia but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

How long does a visa for Cambodia take?
A visa on arrival is issued at the counter of the entry point when you cross the border: there is no processing time to plan for before departure.
Through the online application (Cambodia e-Visa): 3 business days.
Processing and tips
Processing time is not confirmed here, submit your application several working days before departure. Print the e-Visa you receive by email and show it to immigration on arrival. Also check whether a yellow-fever certificate is needed if you arrive from an at-risk area.
Before you fly, and at the border
Passport validity, border checks, minors, overstays: the rules common to every trip are gathered on our travel tips page. Formalities before you leave
Common mistakes
Refusals often stem from a passport valid for under 6 months, an application filed through an unofficial third-party site, or an e-Visa that was not printed for arrival. Make sure you are applying for a tourist visa and not a business visa, and use only evisa.gov.kh.
