In accordance with Art. 12 of the Law on Public Procurement, international competitive bidding is employed for procurement activities of substantial value and high technical complexity. Conversely, domestic competitive bidding is utilised when adequate domestic products or production or construction capabilities are available. This 2023 legislation supersedes the previous Law of the same name enacted in January 2012, which contained a similar provision in its Art 11. According to Art. 11 of the Law of 2023, the conditions, thresholds, and procedure for implementing each procurement method shall be determined by a Prakas of the Minister of the Ministry of Economy and Finance. However, the implementing regulation could not be found online. In addition, pursuant to Chapter 6 (Qualifications of bidders) of the Law on Public Procurement, the Ministry of Economic and Finance (MEF) requires all companies, contractors, and consultants that want to join any bidding for public procurement shall register with MEF and go through a screening process.

It is reported that government procurement is often not transparent and that the Cambodian Government frequently provides short response times to public announcements of tenders, which are posted on the Ministry of Economic and Finance (MEF)'s website. Moreover, different prequalification procedures exist at the provincial level, making some bids particularly complex for prospective contractors. It is also reported that irregularities in the government procurement process are common despite a strict legal requirement for audits and inspections and that, despite allegations of malfeasance at a number of ministries, the Cambodian Government has taken little action to investigate irregularities.
