Siem Reap International Airport (IATA: REP, ICAO: VDSR) (Khmer: អាកាសយានដ្ឋានអន្តរជាតិសៀមរាបអង្គរ French: Aéroport International de Siem Reap) is the airport in Cambodia handling the greatest number of passengers. It is located in Siem Reap, home of Angkor Wat, and is also known as Angkor International Airport.

The full architecture design of the airport was developed by Archetype Group. Official inauguration of Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport's new terminal was in August 28, 2006.

The Cambodian government has plans to replace the airport with a new one, 60km from Siem Reap.
