I'll be going to cambodia soon and im carrying 4 smartphones, 3 cameras, 2 laptops and 2 ipads.

My question is if i'll be asked to pay customs duty on these items upon arrival ? Or theres no import duty on electronics for personal use ( therefore what is considered personal use ? 1 or 2 devices per person ? ).

Im going on a tourist visa 1 month.

Thanks.

First of all, I have never been checked upon arriving in Cambodia (must be more than a 100 times in the last 11 years). I am assuming that none of the items are still packaged?

When coming back from a holiday trip, I usually carry 3-4 cameras, two mobiles, a laptop, and an IPad; never been an issue.

Don't declare anything on the customs form though again this is usually not checked.

The question - as always - is: Do the items stay in Cambodia or not? No tourist declares electronic gadgets that will be taken out again. ... Even if they stayed, I doubt it.

Anyway, here's the form:
