South Korea to Cambodia visa requirements

South Korean ordinary passport holders need a visa for Cambodia. The easiest option is the official Cambodia eVisa (US$30, single entry, up to 30 days), applied for online before travel. Visa on arrival is also available at major airports and land borders. Cambodia does not grant visa-free entry to South Korean citizens (Korea is not on Cambodia's visa-exemption list, which is largely limited to ASEAN members). For a short tourist visit, a Korean ordinary passport holder must obtain a visa. The recommended route is the official government eVisa at evisa.gov.kh: a tourist e-Visa (type T) costs US$30, permits a single entry with a stay of up to 30 days, and is valid for 3 months from issuance. It is delivered by email, usually within about 3 business days. Visa on arrival (VOA) remains available for tourism (US$30) at the main international airports and land crossings, requiring cash payment and a passport photo. Note that Cambodia is in Southeast Asia, not the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Separately, since January 2025 all travelers must complete the online Cambodia e-Arrival Card (immigration/health/customs declaration) within 7 days before arrival; this is not a visa but is mandatory. Passports must be valid at least 6 months with one blank page.
