What the official pages say about the Cambodia e-Visa photo
Cambodia's foreign ministry has run its e-Visa website since April 2006. Ordinary travellers can buy a tourist visa (T) for USD 30 or a business visa (E) for USD 35: one entry, valid for 3 months from issue, for a one-month stay, processed in about 3 business days. Nationals of nine ASEAN countries, such as Thailand and Vietnam, need no visa. You need a passport valid for more than six months on arrival, a Visa or Mastercard card, and a recent passport-size photo in digital form, as a JPEG or PNG file.
The public pages give no size, background or file limit for the photo. If you upload the wrong one, the FAQ says to email a new photo to info@evisa.gov.kh with your reference number. Up to 10 travellers can apply together. Not every land border with Thailand, Vietnam or Laos takes the e-Visa, so check your crossing first, and travel on the passport the visa was issued for. The terms of July 2026 add that fees are not refunded once processing starts, and that false details or forged documents can get a visa refused or revoked.
