Trip Report - Phnom Penh 2016

[Moses]

Probably not. I had visa on arrival twice (Jul 2014 and Jan 2016), it takes about 10 minutes. For me a no-brainer: it's cheaper and faster (I estimate e-visa would take longer, and then I would have to go to an internet cafe to print it out).

Visa-on-arrival takes less time in airports and much more time than e-visa at points of border crossing by land. Also it is sometimes cheaper only in airports - at the land-border officers asking 1000 baht of bribes. Everyone can decline, but then for sure your visa-on-arrival will be not "faster"

When I 'm crossing border by land I decline bribes, give them answer like "Don't worry, I have a time" and take a seat with book. It works: usually after that they make visa in 15-20 minutes.
