Cambodia’s telecommunications market is growing rapidly, with various telecommunications companies operating there. The market size is estimated at USD 0.92 billion by 2025 and is expected to reach USD 1.03 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 2.33% during the forecast period (2025-2030). To access the Cambodian market, especially for ICT products, manufacturers must comply with a compliance instrument called “TRC certification.”
