Travelers planning visits to Cambodia and Thailand should be cautious due to ongoing conflicts between the two nations. On July 26, 2025, the U.S. State Department issued Level 2 travel advisories, indicating a need for increased caution. While American visitors are not banned, they are strongly advised to avoid areas within 50 kilometers of the Cambodia-Thailand border. The U.S. government has noted that emergency services in these areas are limited.
Additionally, the advisory for Cambodia highlights the risk of encountering unexploded landmines in remote locations. Tourists are urged not to touch any unfamiliar metal objects they might come across. There are also reports of robberies, which further raise concerns for potential visitors.
