Brunei does not set its visa rule by UAE residence. Its foreign ministry sorts passports into categories A to D: A and B need a visa from a Brunei mission, C can get a visa on arrival, and D need none. Every foreign visitor must also complete the E-Arrival Card before arriving.
Find your category
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Brunei keeps a country-by-country list. We did not read the list itself, so we cannot say here which category your passport sits in. The tourism board says some nationalities enter visa-free for 90, 30 or 14 days. Check the ministry page, or send us your passport and we look it up.
Costs

How it works with us
Send your passport copy and dates on WhatsApp or through the form on this page. An adviser finds your Brunei category and gives one total price before you pay. The team prepares the visa file if you need one, completes the E-Arrival Card with you and follows up. We are a private visa service. Brunei's immigration authority decides.
If a visa is refused, government fees are not returned. Before you pay, your adviser tells you in writing what part of our total comes back, if any.
