Hello.
I'm currently making plans to have an extended stay in Cambodia, and I think I have things straight in my head regarding a Visa/Work permit, but figured I'd ask here and perhaps get some expert insight.
I am self employed in the UK, running a UK based website as a sole trader. I intend to carry on paying UK tax whilst I am out of the country.
My plan is to get a e class Business/Ordinary Visa on arrival at Phnom Penh airport, then get that extended depending on how long I end up staying.
I plan to do a bit of work remotely via my laptop during my stay. Would this require a work permit? How would I go about getting one if so?
Thanks!

For the moment, keep quiet and let them come to you.
I don't think anything has been said/stated by MLVT about cases like yours, but I'm sure some 3rd class wanker will tell them, now that you've posted it.

Right now, no one knows for sure exactly how things will play out. There are many expats who claim expert knowledge, who will tell you to run down and start handing over money immediately..........don't listen.
Vlad is right. Get a business (ordinary) visa.......preferably for one year, and then let them come to you. If, you must have one when it comes time to renew your visa........you can take care of it then. Right now, a work permit is not necessary to renew a business visa.

You run a website as a business? Damn I was sure all you did on your laptop was writing a screenplay as a purely personal hobby. Hey, in Cambodia if you're asking whether you have to pay some fee for something or anything, the answer is always "yes". As alluded to above, the key is to not do so.
Work permits as per the latest officious statements are a requirement for employees employed with Cambodian registered companies, and the employer is responsible for them. Doesn't apply to you.

Excellent, thanks for the info.
I take it the requirements for an Ordinary Visa are basically the same as a Tourist Visa? I just need a passport, passport photos and payment in US dollars?

I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.
I work only one morning per week. I wonder if I count as an employee, a volunteer or self-employed? I consider myself as volunteer because the money hardly covers the petrol and bike maintenance: without that job I would not need a motorbike as I can buy everything I need nearby.
