How to Apply

If you do not qualify for the Drop Box procedure, you are required to make an 
appointment for interview by calling the U.S. Embassy Telephone Appointment Center at (855-23) 728-000 on Monday through Friday from 8:30 A.M. - 12:00 P.M. and 2:00 P.M. - 4:30 P.M.

Electronic Visa Application Form

Starting November 1, 2006, The United States Embassy will no longer accept handwritten visa applications. All visa applicants must fill their DS-156 application forms using http://evisaforms.state.gov and then bring it along when they come for the interview.

There is no cost to access the visa application form on the above website. Applicants only need to pay the usual fee for internet usage and printing if using a private internet cafe.

Visa applicants have to arrive for interview between 7:30 A.M. and 9:30 A.M. They should submit their passport and application, and pay the non-refundable application fee of 100 USD, prior to their interview. Supporting documents should be brought to the interview by the applicant. Do not send supporting documents via mail, fax, or email.

On the day of the interview, we request that family members, friends, or other persons not accompany the visa applicant to the U.S. Embassy. Applicants are generally interviewed in the order that they arrive, but should plan to be at the Embassy for several hours.

Cambodian citizens do not need to pay any additional fees to the Embassy if a visa is issued. (Some third country nationals may be required to pay an additional fee if the visa is issued, based on bilateral reciprocity agreements between the U.S. government and their home country.)

Visas are generally available for pick at 4:00 P.M. on the following day that the Consular Unit is open to the public. However, the Consular Unit encourages visa applicants not to purchase plane tickets until after they have received the visa back from the Embassy.
