Cambodia's tourist e-visa gives 30 days, extendable once by 30. After that you either switch to the ordinary (E-class) 'business' visa — which extends for 6 or 12 months and is the standard long-stay route — or do a run. Phnom Penh is the gateway.
Closest and cheapest first, from Cambodia. Entry rules below are for a strong passport — open a destination to check yours exactly, or plan the whole run.
“All-in” = round-trip airfare + any entry fee + a few nights’ mid-range hotel. Live fares show once you plan the run.
If you're staying more than ~2 months, the ordinary (E-class) visa is almost always better — it extends 6 or 12 months, multiple entry, no runs. The tourist visa + one extension only gets you 60 days.
Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Kuala Lumpur and Vientiane are all short and inexpensive, and a land bounce to Vietnam or Thailand is cheaper still if you're not in a hurry.
No — the tourist (T-class) visa extends only once, by 30 days. For anything longer you need the E-class visa, which you can convert to in-country through an agent.
