Hello guys,

We arrived back in Siem Reap last Feb 2018 and extended our ordinary visa to 3 month eg.

Last month we renewed our passports. So we now have new passports and our old one got cancelled.

We will leave Cambodia in May.

Do we need to transfer our 3 month eg visa to our new passport?

Or can we just show both our new and old passports at the airport when we leave?

Thanks in advance for the replies.

The latter is correct. As on the way out immigration officers look for the entry stamp and that is in your old passport. The exit stamp will be done in your new passport.

Cheers.
