Cambodia eVisa planning often goes wrong at one small field: Port of Entry. A traveler may have a valid passport, flight or bus plan, accommodation, and payment card ready, but the route still may not match the eVisa entry point shown in the official form.
Checked on July 4, 2026: the Cambodia eVisa form currently shows Cham Yeam and Poi Pet in the dropdown, but they are greyed out and cannot be selected. Treat that as a route-planning signal, not just a visual detail.
TL;DR: If your Cambodia eVisa route depends on Cham Yeam / Koh Kong or Poi Pet / Banteay Meanchey, do not assume the online eVisa can be used for that entry on your travel date. The current form does not let you select those two ports. Use a selectable eVisa entry point, choose another visa route after checking official guidance, or change the itinerary before you pay for non-refundable transport.
What The Dropdown Shows
In the current Cambodia eVisa application form, the Port of Entry list includes:
| Port shown in the form | Current form status | Route meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Techo International Airport (KTI) | Selectable | Air entry near Phnom Penh |
| Siem Reap Angkor International Airport (SAI) | Selectable | Air entry for Siem Reap / Angkor |
| Bavet (Svay Rieng) | Selectable | Land entry from Vietnam |
| Tropaeng Kreal Border Post (Stung Treng) | Selectable | Land entry from Laos |
| Sihanoukville International Airport (Not Cruising Ships) | Selectable | Air entry for Sihanoukville, not cruise arrivals |
| Cham Yeam (Koh Kong) | Greyed out | Thailand-Cambodia border route, not selectable in the current eVisa form |
| Poi Pet (Banteay Meanchey) | Greyed out | Thailand-Cambodia border route, not selectable in the current eVisa form |
The important point is the difference between a port being visible and a port being selectable. If the option is greyed out, build your itinerary around what the form actually allows.
Why This Matters For Land Routes
Poi Pet is the route many travelers think of when they search for Bangkok to Siem Reap by bus. Cham Yeam / Koh Kong is common for Thailand to southwest Cambodia routes. Those names appearing in older articles or maps does not mean the current eVisa form will accept them.
For an eVisa, the port selected in the application should match the entry plan. If your bus route crosses at a port you cannot select, stop before payment and confirm the route. Do not rely on a bus operator's generic "Cambodia visa" wording unless it clearly explains which visa type and entry point it means.
Three Practical Choices
1. Use a selectable eVisa route.
For travelers who want to keep the eVisa path, the cleanest option is to enter through a port that the current form allows, such as KTI, SAI, Bavet, Tropaeng Kreal, or Sihanoukville International Airport.
2. Rework the Thailand-Cambodia itinerary.
If the route was Bangkok to Siem Reap or Thailand to Koh Kong, compare the cost and timing of flying to Cambodia with changing to a different land plan. For same-week travel, check the broader Thailand-Cambodia border status guide before locking transport.
3. Check whether another visa route fits.
If you cannot use a selectable eVisa entry point, look at the official visa options for that port before you travel. The eVisa form status and the actual border operation are separate checks.
eVisa Entry Point Is Not The Same As Border Status
A selectable eVisa port means the online form currently allows that entry point. It does not prove the road is operating normally on your exact travel date.
For land travel, check both layers:
- eVisa layer: can this port be selected in the eVisa form?
- border layer: is this crossing operating for foreign travelers today?
- transport layer: is the bus, private car, or flight route actually running?
This distinction matters most near Thailand-Cambodia border routes because travel advisories, local restrictions, and bus schedules can change faster than a general travel blog page.
e-Arrival Is A Separate Step
Cambodia eVisa and Cambodia e-Arrival are different workflows. The eVisa is the visa application. e-Arrival is the pre-arrival digital declaration for traveler, immigration, health, and customs details.
If you fly into Cambodia, keep the e-Arrival QR step separate from the eVisa entry-point decision. For the QR workflow, use the Cambodia e-Arrival QR code guide.
Reducing Repeated Data Entry
Land-border planning often changes late, and each change means rechecking passport, date, accommodation, transport, and contact fields. eVisaFlow Southeast Asia is useful when you handle several travelers or nearby Southeast Asia routes: it can quick-open the relevant official portals and fill saved traveler, trip, stay, and contact details on the corresponding official websites after you run the extension.
Use the official page for the actual port choice, fee page, payment, and submission.
