Cambodia has announced a major diplomatic expansion with the establishment of an embassy in Timor-Leste and a consulate general in Songkhla, Thailand, as formalized under Sub-Decree No. 240 and No. 241 issued on 22 October 2024, marking a strategic step in extending Cambodia’s international relations.

The Embassy of the Kingdom of Cambodia in the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste will be based in Delhi, serving as a critical hub for bilateral engagement and cooperation between the two nations. Simultaneously, the new Consulate General in Songkhla will enhance ties with Thailand, focusing on facilitating regional collaboration and providing essential consular services to Cambodian nationals residing in or visiting southern Thailand.
