A report from Cambodia's General Department of Immigration shows that during the first nine months of 2026, law enforcement authorities discovered nearly 3,000 cases involving illegal cross-border travel. More than 5,200 people from 93 nationalities were involved. Of those concerned, 103 were arrested and referred to court, while more than 4,100 were deported to their countries of origin. The report stated that the reasons for the cases included being listed on wanted notices, using forged passports or visa stickers, falsifying entry and exit stamps, providing inaccurate passport information, having an unclear purpose of travel and using expired travel documents. During the same period, law enforcement authorities seized 634 illegal-entry cases involving 991 people from 20 nationalities. Of them, 270 were intercepted and referred to court, while 721 travelers identified as victims were returned to their places of residence. The report also said that the General Department of Immigration processed legal overseas employment procedures for more than 5,400 Cambodian citizens through relevant companies and received more than 5,500 Cambodian citizens deported by foreign authorities. In addition, immigration officers stopped 218 Cambodian citizens during exit checks, suspecting they might be involved in human trafficking; the circumstances remain subject to further investigation. ## Published fields - sourceLocale: zh - translationKind: machine - nodeId: 172 - authorText: - sourceName: ## References
