Passport photos


Bangkok Flight Cheap
I just got caught with this in that I left my passport photos in a bag so that I would not get hit with a overweight on my Bangkok  flight to Cambodia for a couple of weeks and they got me for two bucks at the airport in Phnom Penh.  Now they don't need the photo any more because they take your photo at immigration but if you don't have one and they ask for one that is all the more reason they need to take your money.  

In Phnom Penh if you go on the road that leads to  O'Russay market right where you turn off Monivong on the south side of the street there is a little photo shop and they have a studio in the back and they can develop in 10 min, one hour , 4 hour or next day I find them to be very reasonable and even the US Embassy will use their photos for passport and visa stuff.

Passport photos many countries will require that you submit a passport photo with your visa application. If you are on an extended international trip you might change your itinerary and add a country or two to your travel plans based on information that you got while you were out traveling. Sometimes you will meet someone and start traveling with them and they might have a better plan than you, so with Passport photos in hand, you can get visa on demand easier in many countries like Cambodia. Another scenario is if you are going into a special tourist area that requires a pass, many times they will want a passport photo for your application.
