On March 4, 1994, the LDS Church received legal recognition by the government of Cambodia.

The Cambodia Phnom Penh Mission Branch is not part of a stake or district, and serves individuals and families not in proximity to a church meetinghouse.

When the Church was introduced in 1994, Cambodia was part of the Thailand Bangkok Mission.

The mission office is located in a meetinghouse at Building 2B Street 222 in Phnom Penh.

The Phnom Penh Cambodia Temple was announced on October 7, 2018, by Church President Russell M. Nelson.
