TEMPORARY TRAVEL DOCUMENT (TTD)

The Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Berlin advises all Cambodian nationals that expired Cambodian passports cannot be renewed or extended, and the Embassy does not issue new passports. If you need to travel back to Cambodia under such circumstances, you must apply for a Temporary Travel Document (TTD).

What is a Temporary Travel Document?

• A paper-based document (not a passport) issued by the Embassy to Cambodian nationals.
• It serves as a single-use travel document to enter Cambodia.
• Valid for three (3) months from the date of issue, after which it cannot be used for further travel.

What can Apply?

Cambodian nationals traveling back to Cambodia under the following situations:

1. Expired or Nearly Expired Cambodian Passport
2. Lost or Stolen Cambodian Passport

(See required documents in the application form, available only in Khmer.)

When to Apply?

Applications should be submitted at least two (2) months before your intended travel date to allow sufficient processing time.

Processing Time
