Cambodia Visa for cruise ship visit

[NSWP]

OK you mob, next year will be visiting  Sihanoukville - Cambodia on Sapphire Princess.  First time there, will ship do visa or do we need to get an E Visa ourselves?  Australian Passport Holders.

 

Cruise is ex Singapore.

 

Thanks.

You should check on the Asia ports of call forum and see what other recent travellers have experienced.

 

We called at Sihanoukville a few years ago on Azamara Quest and the ship organised the visas which I believe is the norm for all visiting ships.  Unfortunately Princess really get into their passengers for visas for those countries in SE Asia that require them and add a heafty handling fee in addition to the visa fee.  But still more convenient than doing it yourself before you leave.

Thanks, like the Vietnamese ports then, did those on QM2 in 2017.  Cunard did the visas on arrival.  Will research it further.

 

#### So, I just checked my travel summary, US$56 for Vietnam and US$55 for Cambodia, with Princess obtaining them on board.  Cambodian E Visa is only valid at airports, not seaports. Suck it up Uncle Les...😆

We have been to Cambodia on a few cruises but never got a visa in advance. In my opinion, Cambodia would be one of the poorest countries we have ever visited.
