E-visa for Cambodia

While doing some research on whether taking an e-visa or going for a visa on arrival, I saw a lot of people claiming the latter was a better option.  Many travellers were told that the e-visa was not valid when they landed in Siem Reap or Phnom Penh.  The e-visa site was reportedly hacked a few times.

I decided to apply for an e-visa through the official website and I can vouch for the fact that this is a simple and easy process.

Once our flight landed, we zipped through immigration in 30 seconds. They scan the barcode from the visa and then stamp the passport. Fortunately the immigration officer did not ask me for a tip. Many travellers have complained about this.

The U.S. dollar is used as a legal tender for foreigners in the country, so don't bother exchanging currency in the country.
