Remote Property Buying in Cambodia: Just a Video Call Away (But Selling Might Be a Different Story)
Buying property in Cambodia? You might not even need to leave your sofa.
Seriously — with a reliable agent and a notary public on a video call, you can sign and finalise a property purchase entirely remotely. No notarisation abroad, no embassy trips, no apostilles. It’s one of the most foreigner-friendly systems I’ve seen when it comes to ease of entry.
But here’s the twist: buying is easy. Selling remotely? That’s where things get murkier.
With digital signatures, rising AI tools, and evolving fraud risks, remote selling in the future could become more legally complex. Identity verification, title clearance, and cross-border compliance may tighten — especially as digital real estate platforms become more mainstream.
So yes — it’s refreshingly simple to buy today. Just be sure you understand what the exit might look like tomorrow.
