Fresh Fruit → Cambodia
Purpose: Traveling · Verified: 2026-07-23
Fresh Fruit is restricted for travelers entering Cambodia; declare above the personal allowance.
Details
Fresh Fruit requires declaration at customs (and in some cases an import permit) when carried by travelers into Cambodia. General Department of Customs and Excise applies a personal-allowance threshold per item category; quantities above attract duty + the destination's VAT/GST rate (10%) plus, for select categories, an additional excise tax. ASEAN AFTA / RCEP preferential treatment for member-state goods. Cultural-property export rules vary sharply by destination. Travelers should consult General Department of Customs and Excise for the current quantity threshold + documentation requirement before departure.
Leaving with this item
Fresh fruit for personal consumption may face export limits from Cambodia for phytosanitary reasons; commercial quantities require a Phytosanitary Certificate.
Practical advice
Carry Fresh Fruit in carry-on where applicable (medication / lithium battery / valuables). On arrival, walk the Red Channel and declare on the customs form. General Department of Customs and Excise computes duty + VAT at the published rate. Have the purchase receipt + (for medication) the original prescription available.
