Passport and transit notes
- Passport validity
- passport valid for at least 6 months after arrival; Cambodia's tourism information page says tourist and business travellers need a passport valid for at least six months.
- Validity source (opens in a new tab) Validity guide
- Transit
- landside transit: required; Cambodia's public visitor guidance focuses on entry visas and the e-Arrival card, not a universal airside-transit waiver. Crossing immigration or entering Cambodia requires meeting the normal visa or exemption rule.

Why this verdict
Vietnamese citizens' entry guidance is based on Cambodia's ordinary-passport visa-exemption guidance. This guidance is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, tourism / visitor travel only. Diplomatic/service passports, work, study, residence, embassy discretion, eVisa port availability, airline handling and immigration discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official source before booking.
Conditional rules
- Stay beyond the visa-exempt period or travel for work, study or residence Visa required
Use the appropriate Cambodian visa or extension route before the visa-free stay expires.
- Air arrivals or routes where Cambodia e-Arrival applies Conditional
Up to 30 days. The e-Arrival card is an entry procedure, not a visa, and may still be required for visa-free travellers.
