You can withdraw money from atms with your bank cards, but it costs money and has a daily restriction.

Better to open a Cambodian bank account and sent money there. With your Cambodian bank card you take money from atms for free and the restriction is like $1000 a day. Of course you can take larger amounts when you go to the bank office.

Cheers

You will have a USD account and all money will be booked in USD.

Money you take, either from an atm or from the bank office, will be in USD.
