Full details

CBD Oil is prohibited for travelers entering Cambodia. General Department of Customs and Excise screens baggage at all ports of entry; the item is seized regardless of quantity, and depending on item class (narcotic / weapon / counterfeit / cultural-heritage), the traveler may face administrative or criminal penalty under the destination's controlled-substances / customs act. ASEAN AFTA / RCEP preferential treatment for member-state goods. Cultural-property export rules vary sharply by destination. Personal-import permit pathways exist for medication categories (see General Department of Customs and Excise guidance) but do not apply to most prohibited items.

PENALTIES

  • Fine: 500000–500000000 KHR
  • Imprisonment up to 300 months
  • Criminal penalty

Leaving Cambodia with cbd oil

PROHIBITEDCBD is a controlled substance in Cambodia with no lawful personal possession, so there is no lawful export of CBD products.

Cambodia treats cannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabis derivatives as controlled substances under Law on Drug Control 2012, with no general personal-possession exemption for hemp-derived or low-THC products. Because lawful possession is not available to travellers, there is no personal-export pathway — CBD products found at departure screening are subject to seizure and the traveller to prosecution under the same narcotics framework that applies on entry. Travellers should not transit Cambodia carrying CBD products of any THC content.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Do not carry CBD Oil into Cambodia. If you arrive with the item by accident, surrender at the Red Channel for seizure-only treatment rather than walking the Green Channel — the latter is treated as deliberate smuggling. Contact General Department of Customs and Excise via https://www.customs.gov.kh/ for current personal-import policy if your situation is exceptional (medical / diplomatic).
