Discover visa requirements for your trip
Swedish citizens need a tourist visa for Cambodia. It is obtained online as an e-Visa through the official portal evisa.gov.kh, before departure.
For a tourist trip to Cambodia, Swedish travellers must obtain a visa before travelling. The simplest route is the e-Visa applied for on the official portal evisa.gov.kh, which avoids queues and cash payments at the border. A visa on arrival exists at some entry points, but the prior e-Visa is more predictable; check the exact fee on the official portal.
Do you need a visa for Cambodia?
Yes. A Swedish passport does not allow visa-free entry to Cambodia for tourism. The recommended option is the e-Visa (electronic tourist visa), applied for online before departure. A visa on arrival may exist at some crossings, but it is better not to depend on it for a first trip.
How and where to apply
Swedish applicants complete the process online, from Sweden, on the official portal evisa.gov.kh before travelling. Fill in the form, upload a passport photo and your passport page, then pay by card. Once approved, the e-Visa arrives by email: print it for immigration on arrival.
Documents and fees
Bring a Swedish passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your entry date, with blank pages for the sticker. A recent digital passport photo is required, as is often proof of accommodation or an onward ticket. This guide does not guarantee the visa amount: check the official fee on evisa.gov.kh before confirming payment.
Processing time and practical tips
Processing time is not fixed: allow several days before departure. Make sure your entry point accepts the e-Visa, as some land crossings do not recognise it. Always print your e-Visa, as immigration officers usually ask for a paper version on arrival.
Common mistakes
Use only the official portal evisa.gov.kh: many third-party sites add unnecessary fees. Confirm that the chosen entry point accepts the e-Visa to avoid refusal. Finally, check your passport validity (at least 6 months) and the accuracy of your details before submitting.
