## Evidence timeline

- **Current official route — Brunei: Category A and B ordinary passports require advance visa** (Visa required)
  The live MFA country schedule assigns these ordinary passports to Categories A or B; both categories expressly require a visa through a Brunei mission abroad.
  - The assignment comes from the explicit, live MFA country-by-country Category A/B schedule—not from an unlisted-country complement. Both categories say a visa is required and may be applied for through the nearest Brunei mission abroad; the reviewed material does not establish an electronic alternative.
  - The FAQ distinguishes short/social, business and professional visit visas. Business and professional visits require a Brunei registered/government-linked sponsor application, and employment needs the appropriate visa and employment pass before arrival.
  - E-Arrival Card registration is an arrival declaration and does not replace the required visa. Transit is separately limited to a 72-hour transit pass with onward ticket and airline sponsor/guarantor; it is not normalized as a visitor route.
  - Valid recognised passport, six-month validity, fees, duration, entry count, documentary criteria and individual admissibility remain subject to the competent authorities. Diplomatic, official, service, residence and special-document arrangements are excluded.
