How long is the status granted, what is required for renewal, what physical-presence obligations matter, and what longer-term residence direction exists?

ER extensions are available for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months and can be renewed indefinitely. One- and three-month extensions are single-entry; six- and twelve-month extensions are multiple-entry. The official source does not state physical-presence obligations or a route to permanent residence.

Limits of the record
  • The checked sources do not establish permanent-residence progression or physical-presence requirements.
  • ER duration and renewal
    The Cambodia Retirement Visa allows individuals to stay in the Kingdom for 1, 3, 6, or 12 months, with the option to renew the extension indefinitely. If you extend for 1 or 3 months, the extension is single-entry, which means you cannot leave Cambodia and re-enter on that same visa; you would need to obtain a new visa to return. If you want multiple-entry privileges, choose a 6- or 12-month extension.

These are the answers currently recorded in the catalogue. A missing or partial answer is not an eligibility decision.
