🇰🇭 Cambodia visa and residence routes

Still one of the cheapest, least bureaucratic bases in Asia — a renewable business-visa extension, not a residency track.

At least one route here publishes no income or savings floor at all (Ordinary Visa (EB business/freelance extension)). The single documented route is remote work / self-employment. Naturalisation is not a realistic prospect for most foreign residents here.

How Cambodia compares

It is among the ten cheapest destinations we cover, at roughly €900 a month for one person. Healthcare is the weakest column in this country's profile; private cover matters more here than elsewhere.

Who these routes are built for

Based on the routes currently included in our database for Cambodia, these options suit people earning from remote work or their own foreign clients.

They are a poor fit for retirees, since no passive-income route is published.

The financial bar is the main money test for that route — a monthly income floor, or the savings to show where no income floor applies. Figures are for a single applicant; most programmes scale upward for a partner or children.

Ordinary Visa (EB business/freelance extension)

TYPICAL PROCESSING 1 MONTHSDOES NOT LEAD TO RESIDENCY BY ITSELF

No published income floor — the EB extension runs on a registered business or freelance activity rather than a salary test, renewable in 1/3/6/12-month blocks. A visa status, not a residency or citizenship track.
