Hi, would appreciate some advice here.
Has anyone done a conversion of the tourist visa to a 1-year ordinary visa? How much did it cost and how long did it take? I know it is possible but I've feeling we are being ripped off for this. Agency wants $335 for 6 months extension.

You can't convert a tourist visa to an ordinary one, you have to leave and re-enter. The agent will have to get someone to do this for them, and there is always a large charge for this service, which by the way is illegal.

It is illegal, hence the high price charged by agents who do it. Cheaper, and safer, to do a border run.adele_tang wrote:Hi, would appreciate some advice here.

I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.
Is Lucky Lucky Motorcycle as stated on page one the Agency of choice to do a visa extension, or is their a better more current agency I should seek?... Mine is an ordinary visa I will extend for 6 months.....

I haven't had to use them for a long time but they were always very reliable for the first few years I was here.racontuer wrote:Is Lucky Lucky Motorcycle as stated on page one the Agency of choice to do a visa extension, or is their a better more current agency I should seek?...

Unofficial translation of the updated visa types and visa extension of stay types, still rather vague on certain details and no listed official fees.

Does a 3-month single entry visa that I get in PP allow me to leave and come back to Cambodia once?
Single entry means just that...the initial entry was your single entry. If you want to enter/exit the country without purchasing a new VOA you require either a 6 or 12 mth EOS which are MEEV's, if you exit on a single entry EOS you will be required to purchase on new visa on arrival.sounds_never_seen wrote:Does a 3-month single entry visa that I get in PP allow me to leave and come back to Cambodia once?

I thought there might have been no 'entry' as I already stay in the country and just extend my previous 6-month visa.
So if I want to leave and come back I need at least a 6-month visa, nice.

You can't get 3/6 month visas, these are visa extensions.sounds_never_seen wrote:I thought there might have been no 'entry' as I already stay in the country and just extend my previous 6-month visa.

Was it a pain in the arse going to the immigration department or relatively easy? Also, any supporting docs needed?walkjivefly wrote:How, where, and how long did it take?PSD_Kiwi wrote:^ that is correct, kind of ridiculous, but true.
BtW, I just got a 12 month extension of stay for only $170...the official price!
Also, wait time?
Thanks
As mentioned in previous post, 3 days.
No supporting docs required. Wasn't a pain in the ass although they were trying to charge the same price as agencies, thankfully the missus was with me and she argued the point.
