Cambodia Address Format
Cambodian addresses run from smallest to largest unit: recipient, house number and street (many streets in Phnom Penh are simply numbered, e.g. Street 240), then Sangkat (commune) and Khan (district), then the municipality or province with the 5-digit postal code on the same line. Khmer names conventionally put the family name first (Sok Dara = family name Sok).
