Visa requirements for Bruneian citizens


Visa requirements for Bruneian citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states which are imposed on citizens of Brunei. As of 28 September 2019, Bruneian citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 165 countries and territories, ranking the Bruneian passport 21st in terms of travel freedom according to the Henley & Partners Passport Index.
Brunei is the only country whose citizens may travel without a visa to all of the permanent member countries of the UN Security Council. Brunei is also a part of ASEAN and has visa-free access to these countries and vice versa.
Besides the Bruneian passport, there are only 3 other passports that provide either visa-free entry, or entry via an electronic travel authorisation, to the world's four largest economies: China, India, the European Union, and the United States : those of Japan, San Marino, and Singapore.
