๐ Postal Guidelines: China to Cambodia
Postal items dispatched from Mainland China to Cambodia do not require a Cambodia postal code for international transit.
The destination country (Cambodia) must be clearly indicated in Chinese characters on the mail item. The complete destination address, including city and detailed street address, must also be provided in Chinese.
To facilitate final delivery within Cambodia, the complete delivery address must be legibly written in the local language (English or local language).
Including the correct local Cambodia postal code is strongly recommended. This significantly enhances sorting efficiency at Cambodia Post and optimizes last-mile delivery by postal carriers.
