Portal support: +855 81 888 296.\nAre business registration and QIP the same?\nNo. QIP is investment-project status; confirm the receiving channel and documents with CDC or the relevant MPIS. See the QIP application and field-preparation guide and use MPSEZ enquiries.\nWhy does QIP with Chinese return no files?\nPage language and file language differ. The supplied QIP forms are Khmer or English, and the checklist is bilingual. A Chinese description does not create a Chinese original. Choose the Khmer form / English form / checklist.\nIs the 2023 handbook still useful?\nIt remains useful for the investment environment and institutional framework of that period; age alone does not invalidate every page. Recheck forms, receiving authorities, fees, incentives and current policy before applying.\nIs an export date an official edition?\nNo. A Google-document export date identifies the copy, not an official new edition. Confirm the forms and checklist with the receiving office, and do not put an export date into fields asking for an official decree number or date.\nIs the investment-law briefing the full law?\nNo. The supplied file is a 12-page introductory briefing. An application needs the applicable law, implementing instruments and receiving requirements; the law’s promulgation date is not necessarily this PDF’s publication date.\nWhere can I check petroleum permissions?\nIdentify whether the activity is processing, storage, trading or a filling station. The Ministry of Mines and Energy provides downstream certificates, licences and application procedures; also see our energy and petrochemicals page.","contentScope":"full","proof":{"publicationId":"68","publishedRevision":"8","sourceRevision":"4"},"availableLocales":["zh","en","km"],"attributes":{"kind":"guide","sourceLocale":"en","regionKeys":[],"industryKeys":[],"projectStage":"unknown","solicitation":"unknown","amountNature":"unknown","asOfDate":"","policyIssuer":"","policyEffectiveOn":"","policyExpiresOn":""},"references":[{"checkedOn":"2026-10-19","publishedOn":"","url":"https://www.mpsez.gov.kh/about-us/introduction"},{"checkedOn":"2026-10-19","publishedOn":"","url":"https://www.mpsez.gov.kh/businessetup/setup"},{"checkedOn":"2026-10-19","publishedOn":"","url":"https://www.mpsez.gov.kh/businessetup/qualified-investment-project"},{"checkedOn":"2026-10-20","publishedOn":"","url":"https://registrationservices.gov.kh/home-en/"},{"checkedOn":"2026-10-20","publishedOn":"","url":"https://mme.gov.kh/strategic-sectors/petroleum/permits-and-licenses/downstream-activities"},{"checkedOn":"2026-10-20","publishedOn":"","url":"https://mme.gov.kh/km/%E1%9E%9C%E1%9E%B7%E1%9E%9F%E1%9F%90%E1%9E%99%E1%9E%99%E1%9E%BB%E1%9E%91%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%92%E1%9E%9F%E1%9E%B6%E1%9E%9F%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%9A%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%8F/%E1%9E%9C%E1%9E%B7%E1%9E%9F%E1%9F%90%E1%9E%99%E1%9E%94%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%9A%E1%9F%81%E1%9E%84%E1%9E%80%E1%9E%B6%E1%9E%8F/%E1%9E%9B%E1%9E%B7%E1%9E%81%E1%9E%B7%E1%9E%8F%E1%9E%A2%E1%9E%93%E1%9E%BB%E1%9E%89%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%89%E1%9E%B6%E1%9E%8F-%E1%9E%93%E1%9E%B7%E1%9E%84-%E1%9E%A2%E1%9E%B6%E1%9E%87%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%89%E1%9E%B6%E1%9E%94%E1%9F%90%E1%9E%8E%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%8E/%E1%9E%9F%E1%9E%80%E1%9E%98%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%98%E1%9E%97%E1%9E%B6%E1%9E%96%E1%9E%95%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%93%E1%9F%82%E1%9E%80%E1%9E%8A%E1%9F%84%E1%9E%93%E1%9E%9F%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%9A%E1%9F%92%E1%9E%91%E1%9E%B8%E1%9E%98"}],"links":["https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/region-sihanoukville","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/region-koh-kong","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/region-kampot","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/region-kep","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/business-registration-guide","https://registrationservices.gov.kh/home-en/","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/qip-application-guide","https://www.mpsez.gov.kh/contactus","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/resources/qip-khmer","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/resources/qip-english","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/resources/qip-checklist","https://mme.gov.kh/strategic-sectors/petroleum/permits-and-licenses/downstream-activities","https://www.kps-tv.com/en/investment/content/industry-energy"],"publishedAt":"2026-10-20T02:38:08.614Z"}
