On June 15, 2026, Cambodia reached a new milestone in strengthening its ties with China. On that day, Phnom Penh officially launched an experimental visa exemption program for nationals of the People's Republic of China, applicable until October 15 next.

From the end of the 1960s until 1990, no methodical and systematic census of the Cambodian population was conducted that would have allowed for an overall picture of the country's demographic evolution over these thirty years.
