Cambodia Visit/Tourist Visa Application Status 2026: How to Track & What Codes Mean

Once you have submitted your Cambodia Visit/Tourist Visa application, you can track its progress through the official Cambodia immigration portal at https://www.evisa.gov.kh. You will need your application reference number (provided at the time of submission), your passport number, and your date of birth. Status updates are typically available within 3 – 5 business days of submission. Keep in mind that status systems do not always reflect real-time decisions — there is often a 24 – 48 hour lag between a decision being made and the online status being updated.

Common Cambodia Visit/Tourist Visa status codes and their meanings: "Received" — your application has been received and registered; "Processing" — your application is actively being reviewed by an immigration officer; "Additional Documents Required" — action needed from you within the specified timeframe (failure to respond may result in refusal); "Decision Made" — a decision has been issued (check the portal for details); "Approved" — your visa has been approved and is being prepared for dispatch; "Refused" — your application has been refused (a refusal notice will be sent separately). If your status has not changed in more than 4 weeks, contact the visa processing center.

Standard processing time for a Cambodia Visit/Tourist Visa is 3 days (e-visa). If your application has exceeded this timeframe: (1) Check the official processing time page at https://www.evisa.gov.kh as processing times change frequently; (2) Submit a status enquiry or service request through the official immigration portal; (3) Contact the visa application center (VFS/BLS/TLScontact) where you submitted; (4) For urgent cases (imminent travel/study/work start date), request priority processing or escalate to the immigration authority directly; (5) Contact your country's local embassy or consulate.

If you submitted your Cambodia Visit/Tourist Visa through a VFS Global, BLS International, or TLScontact application center, you can track your application using the reference number on your appointment receipt. VFS provides SMS and email alerts when your passport has been dispatched for return. Tracking links: VFS Global (track.vfsglobal.com), BLS International (blsinternational.com/track), TLScontact (check the country-specific TLS portal).

Some components of your Cambodia Visit/Tourist Visa application — such as biometric enrollment, medical examination, and police clearance verification — are processed separately and will not appear in the main application status system. Biometrics are typically verified within 2 – 5 business days. Police clearance certificates are verified directly between Cambodia immigration and your home country's authorities. If your overall application status is "Processing" for more than 3 days (e-visa), one of these components may be the bottleneck.
