Health Insurance with medical coverage

Travellers must provide proof of insurance with medical coverage of at least $50,000 USD for their stay in Cambodia. Covid insurance covering a 20-day period can be purchased on arrival at Phnom Penh Airport for $90.

Besides, foreign travellers are required to deposit 1,000 dollars by cash or credit card upon their arrival at international airports in Cambodia to expense during a quarantine period in case that any fellow travellers are tested positive for COVID-19.

Do I need to quarantine when visiting Cambodia in 2022?

If you are fully vaccinated, you don’t need to undergo quarantine. Of course, you need to show evidence of two doses of vaccine on your arrival. At the international airport, you must also do a rapid test and wait for the results (about 30mins), then if your result is negative, you are officially free to travel around Cambodia.

Non-vaccinated individuals still can enter but are required to do a 14-day quarantine in a designated quarantine hotel.
