Passports to be valid longer

7 May 2014

Passports issued to Cambodians will soon be valid for 10 years instead of three. Head of the General Directorate of Identification said that by July the department would begin to issue long-awaited 10-year passports.

There is no indication made that the $135 fee will be lowered and how much time it takes the government to issue them.

The central passport office will also be moved from its current location on Mao Tse Toung Boulevard in Chamkarmon district to Niroth commune, Meanchey district, in an attempt to ease the flow of traffic in the city centre.

Last month, Cambodia opened passport offices along its border with Thailand to cut down on illegal migration.
