The move came followed a meeting between Cambodia's Minister of Tourism, Huot Hak, and Dusit Manapan and Chayika Wongnapachant, advisors to Thai Foreign Minister Maris Sangiampongsa, to discuss cross-border travel on Monday, Bangkok Post reported.
The Cambodian authorities have agreed to continue discussions with relevant agencies, and the feedback will be submitted to Cambodia's cabinet for consideration, The Cambodia Daily reported.
Thailand had earlier proposed a Schengen-style joint visa for six countries: Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam.
If implemented, travelers would no longer need separate visas or permits.
Modeled after Europe's Schengen area, the unified visa will allow tourists to travel freely between the participating countries.
At a meeting on Oct. 9 on the sidelines of the 44th-45th ASEAN Summit in Laos, Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra agreed to collaborate with relevant nations to pilot the initiative.
Last year, the six Southeast Asian countries collectively welcomed 70 million foreign tourists, according to official data.
