Cambodia Visa - what size picture?

Leaving in a few days and do not know/can't remember what size your picture for the Cambodia entry visa must be. Husband's guide book says the picture should be 4 x 6, but it has been incorrect regarding several other things. I have 2 passport sized photos.
Will this suffice?

Passport or the smaller visa size photos are fine. 4x6 would be way too big!

One passport sized photo is all you need. They aren't especially picky about the size. Last week, I used one that was about 3 cm x 4.5 cm.

I'd be interested to know what your husband's guide book is. It has such interesting misinformation!

I think the OP means 4cm x 6 cm ( 40mm x 60 mm )

I always get a e-Visa for Cambodia. Costs $5.00 more, but, saves pages in my passport.

Ah...... Kathie

This ancient Brit thinks just like you......feet and inches.

Even as a working engineer, my auto response is always in imperial sizes. Of course, I have to work with metric sizes, but.......

This is one area where I am completely supportive of the u.s.a.

And yes for the O.P. passport size is the requirement.

As Michael has said, about 3 cm x 4.5 cm.

Metric is easy. In Australia, it has been the standard since 1966.
American has metric measurements for money, yet, Imperial for other work.

In my travels as a project engineer in Asia, It was always a pain when something came to Asia with imperial screws, wrenches etc. Even drawings in imperial were a nuisance.

Interesting read here..

gearsau, of course you are right, metric is very easy. It's the conversion from English measure to metric that is difficult for those of us who learned to think in inches and feet, ounces and pounds degrees Fahrenheit, etc.

I liked the article... it's so weird that the US didn't go metric when it was supposed to. It gets all tied up in politics here. I was fascinated to read that Burma is another country that hasn't gone metric.

Kathie,

I grew up on Imperial as well.

But,in 1966, I had to learn it all again. I can still work both ways. When I was doing some work in Korea, China and Thailand from 2003 to 2008,it was so annoying when projects came in from USA ,and all were Imperial. Try to even obtain imperial wrenches in a metric market .!
I used to be a cutting tool engineer, and you cannot even think about the fights I used to have with my head quarters in USA about a lack of Metric product to suit the market.

Problem was, at the time, my ex firm was #1 in USA, and didn't care about the rest of the world market. Times have changed, but, they sure lost a lot of business at the time because of stubborness.
