The U.S Embassy issues warning to its citizen of a potential post-election violence

National Election Results 
Released on July 28, 2013 

As the U.S. Embassy continues to monitor reaction to the July 28, 2013 elections, we will be closed to the public on the morning of Monday, July 29 with regular consular services resuming at 12:00 noon.  We regret the inconvenience.  If you had an appointment for American Citizens Services on that morning, please reschedule your appointment.  If you need an emergency service, please contact the Embassy at 023-728-000.  Please continue to monitor the Embassy's website for updates on the status of services to the public.

Due to the potential for civil unrest over the next few days, the U.S. Embassy encourages U.S. citizens to limit their movements, avoid areas prone to gatherings, and immediately vacate any area where crowds are gathering.  Rival groups may take to the streets and public areas to express their political views.  Demonstrations or events intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and possibly escalate into violence without warning.  The Embassy advises U.S. citizens to remain alert to local security developments by monitoring local news reports, be vigilant regarding your personal security and preparedness, be aware of your surroundings, and plan your activities accordingly.

We strongly recommend that U.S. citizens traveling to or residing in Cambodia enroll in the Department of State’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP).  STEP enrollment gives you the latest security updates, and makes it easier for the U.S. embassy or nearest U.S. consulate to contact you in an emergency.  If you don’t have Internet access, enroll directly with the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate.

Regularly monitor the State Department's website, where you can find current Travel Warnings, Travel Alerts, and the Worldwide Caution. Read the Country Specific Information for Cambodia.  For additional information, refer to “A Safe Trip Abroad” on the State Department’s website.
