Taiwan's 90-day exemption covers US, UK, and most EU passports, but you still have to file the free TWAC arrival card before Taoyuan immigration will wave you through.

A Cambodia tourist visa runs $30 to $36 USD whether you go e-visa or arrival, but only evisa.gov.kh is the real government portal, everything else is a markup.
