Cambodia has long been a close neighboring country, developing alongside Vietnam within the ASEAN community.
This strong relationship is reflected in the growing number of Vietnamese and Cambodian people living and working in both countries, in line with the shared economic growth of both nations.
*Based on the 2023 cooperation plan between the Ministry of Public Security of Vietnam and the Ministry of Interior of Cambodia, a conference was held this morning in Hanoi by the Department of Immigration to discuss and exchange experiences in immigration management.
The event welcomed a delegation from the Cambodian General Department of Immigration, led by General Sok Veasna, who is currently on an official visit to Vietnam.
Since the beginning of the year, over 537,000 Cambodian citizens have entered Vietnam, with nearly 512,000 departures and over 129,000 temporary residence declarations.
For Vietnamese citizens, there have been over 815,000 departures to Cambodia over the past ten months for purposes such as work, family visits, and trade.
Currently, there are approximately 103,000 people of Vietnamese origin in Cambodia, and the General Department of Immigration under the Ministry of Interior of Cambodia has been issuing administrative documents to help them obtain the necessary legal papers.*

These impressive figures also drive the continuous growth of cross-border remittances between the two countries.
**During Samdech Thipadei Prime Minister Hun Manet's official visit to Vietnam at the end of 2023, the leaders of Vietnam and Cambodia agreed on several key aspects of their bilateral relationship, including an emphasis on striving to reach a bilateral trade turnover of 20 billion USD.
This objective was reiterated by Deputy Prime Minister and First Vice-Chairman of the Cambodian Development Council (CDC) Sun Chanthol in a bilateral meeting with Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Khai at the 29th Nikkei Future of Asia Forum in Japan this past May.**
