WARNING SCAMS AT THE BORDER:
Scams (border officials demanding extra money) occur at the overland border crossings. Keep smiling and refuse to pay extra! No problems at the airports.
The most consistently reported scam at the border is being overcharged. At the Thai border crossings Cambodian immigration usually charges 1200-1500 baht for a tourist visa and refuse dollars. This is a significantly higher than the official rate. You might have success by being politely insistent and just pay the official price in dollars. If you don’t want any hassle: get an e-visa in advance.
When immigration officials charge an extra fee for an exit stamp, or for a ‘Health Form’, just politely ask for a receipt. They will usually back off. Never plainly refuse or get angry, because that will get you nowhere.
