Brits in Cambodia
This site is aimed at British expats living in Cambodia, as well as other foreign workers and entrepreneurs working in Cambodia. There are many French who also live in Cambodia. Bienvenue au Cambodge!

Cambodia is a Southeast Asian nation whose landscape spans low-lying plains, the Mekong Delta, mountains and Gulf of Thailand coastline. Phnom Penh, its capital, is home to the art deco Central Market, glittering Royal Palace and the National Museum’s historical and archaeological exhibits. In the country’s northwest are the ruins of Angkor Wat in Siam Reap, a massive stone temple complex built during the Khmer Empire (see pic above).

Find out about what life is like for Brits working and living abroad, about work permits, visas and the top job sectors for foreigners, as well as the legalities of running a business in Cambodia.

Migrants in Cambodia are being vaccinated against COVID-19 for the first time (Dec. 2021), as the International Organization for Migration (IOM), World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) work under the leadership of the Royal Government of Cambodia to support the national immunization effort to vaccinate all eligible people in Cambodia including the vulnerable groups such as migrants and those living in the border areas.
The country has had an impressive record of COVID-19 vaccination coverage, with over 96% of the adult population aged 18 years old and over having received a second dose of COVID-19 vaccine.
Cambodia has had more than 119,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and over 2,800 people have died since the start of the pandemic. The hope is that with the inclusion of migrants in the vaccine roll-out, the number of cases and negative impact of COVID-19 will be reduced.
