Can I do a visa run to Cambodia given my nationality?
Good morning, does anyone here was able to exit to Cambodia for a visa run? As I have read from posts that Cambodia is still open as long as its your first time to get a visa run there. Thank you for your replies, appreciate it much as my visa expires this end of Match too.

@Benjamin *****
do you have a direct source that the border has been interpreting it this way?Benjamin ******
From
"Passengers arriving from France, Germany, Iran, Italy, Spain or USA are not allowed to enter Cambodia."
The Cambodia borders are interpreting this to mean the person's passport nation, so no, Germans can not bounce in and out of Cambodia.

Thanks for the updates today. I was a few hours behind and driving over but was following your comments and was glad for some certainty when I arrivedLeon ******
I'm a South African. Im still here at the border too. They do temperature screening and did ask for health certificate, which I did not have. The agency I'm using said I don't need it, but tgey did ask for it. Agency helped me through.
Border is extremely busy too. I advise you to have a heath certificate, just for in case they ask for it.

which border checkpoint are you heading to?

SOME of the land borders with cambodia are open today GO and bounce out and back NOW.
Depending on your nationality you can get TWO 30 day visa exempt entries by land in a calendar year. SO if you don't have two yet this year by land you're good to bounce, BUT bounce TODAY because the new entry policy starts at Midnight.

OPMy contract and work permit will end on March 31 sir. Then, my school will cut the visa too.
Mary ***************************
OP@Tod ********
great thanks sir... Appreciate it much.. Just that I have no idea at all because I only got to work with one school for three years and they did everything about visa.. Tod *********
@Mary ***************
you're on the ORIGINAL 90 day entry from a Non-B visa right? Then you can just go to the border and stamp out
Tod *********
@Ian *******
you are correct, if you're on a 30 day visa exempt, a 60 day tourist visa, OR a 30 day extension from one of them OR on the initial entry of a Non-Immigrant type visa you can just stamp out BUT if you are on an extension from a Non-Immigrant B or ED visa you have to cancel it officially FIRST to stamp out.
Mary ***************************
OP@Tod ********
non b sir... But will expire at the end of the month. Tod *********
@Mary ***************
and are you on the initial 90 day entry of the Non-B OR are you on an extension of it from the immigration office?Mary ***************************
OP@Ian *******
so I can go to Cambodia now? Thank you Mary ***************************
OP@Tod ********
thank you brother, but I have a little concerning the cancellation of my visa ,should I cancel it first to gets visa run or it doesn't matter at all? Big thanks. Activity
