I'm coming to Cambodia again in December, and I thought to bring some alcoholic beverages to my friends. Which kind of regulations there are for bringing alcohol to Cambodia as souvenir?

Visitors who are 18 years or older are allowed to bring into Cambodia 200 cigarettes or the equivalent amount of tobacco, and one opened bottle of liquor and perfume for personal use. Currency in possession must be declared on arrival. Cambodian Customs on the whole are not too fierce.

Cheers.

Thank you Joe for your prompt reply (again).

So basically unopened "souvenir" bottles are not allowed, but customs is not too sensitive?

They don't consider alcohol souvenirs.
