Dubai visa for Brunei citizens: price, documents and process

We process the Dubai visa for Brunei citizens as a 30 day or 60 day UAE tourist visa, available in single and multiple entry, with most approvals arriving in 24 to 72 hours. Rates start at AED 450, four documents cover most cases, and our consultants manage the application with you on WhatsApp. Read on for the full picture for Brunei passports: price list, requirements, processing time, validity and extension rules.

Quick answer: a Dubai visa for a Brunei passport costs AED 450 for 30 days single entry, AED 650 for 60 days single entry, AED 800 for 30 days multiple entry and AED 1,000 for 60 days multiple entry. Processing takes 24 to 72 hours and the visa must be used to enter the UAE within 60 days of issue.

Who needs a prearranged Dubai visa?

Most nationalities need a prearranged visa before flying to the UAE, and that is what we issue. Some passports are stamped on arrival instead, and the list of eligible countries is updated periodically. Message us a photo of your Brunei passport on WhatsApp and we will confirm which rule applies before any payment is taken.

Dubai visa price for Brunei passport holders

Our rate card for Brunei passports, confirmed in September 2026, is as follows:

• 30 day tourist visa, single entry: AED 450
• 60 day single entry: AED 650
• Multiple entry 30 day visa: AED 800
• Multiple entry 60 day visa: AED 1,000

No tourist visa shorter than 30 days is available. The visa fee is paid to immigration at submission and cannot be refunded if the application is declined.

A note on deposits

Some passports are asked for a refundable security deposit. It is separate from the visa price above, it is refunded after the visitor exits the UAE, and we will confirm on WhatsApp whether it applies to Brunei passports and how much it is.

Pay in monthly instalments

UAE residents applying for a family member or friend from Brunei can split the visa fee using Tabby with up to 12 months, Tamara with extendable terms, or a UAE credit card with 3, 6, 9 or 12 month plans depending on the issuing bank. Applicants who are not UAE residents pay through a secure online link.

What Brunei citizens need to send us

Share these items on WhatsApp and we will confirm whether we can proceed, typically within the hour:

1. Passport scan showing the front page and the back cover, valid for at least six months. A missing back cover is the most common reason an application is returned, so please include both.
2. A white background colour photo in passport format, without eyewear.
3. A return or two way flight ticket; if you do not have one, we can arrange the flights.
4. If the applicant is a minor, a birth certificate. Certain passports additionally need a national ID card copy.

Depending on nationality, a six month bank statement may be requested. If that applies to Brunei applicants, a UAE resident family member can provide theirs instead. Please also carry a card or some cash, since immigration can ask arriving visitors to show proof of funds.

Guarantor documents

When a UAE resident applies on behalf of a Brunei visitor, we also need the sponsor’s passport copy valid for six months, residence visa page valid for six months, Emirates ID front and back, and the guarantee form completed at applyvisa.app. If a statement is requested, a UAE family member may supply it on the applicant’s behalf, but a friend’s statement is not accepted.

Getting your Dubai visa in four steps

1. WhatsApp your documents to +971 52 292 1011 or +971 4 220 2133. We review them within hours and recommend the right visa for your trip.
2. Make the payment through the link we send. The application goes to immigration as soon as payment clears and documents are approved.
3. We submit the application to immigration and keep you updated. Most Brunei applications are approved in 24 to 72 hours, though immigration may occasionally take longer or request additional documents.
4. You receive the approved visa as a PDF on WhatsApp. Print a copy or keep it on your phone and present it with your passport at check in and on arrival.

Validity, entry and stay rules for Brunei visitors

The permit is valid for entry for 60 days from issue. Your 30 or 60 days of stay begin on the day you enter, not on the day the visa is issued. A single entry visa allows one arrival; a multiple entry visa lets you leave and re enter as often as you like within the validity, which suits travellers combining the UAE with Oman, Saudi Arabia or Qatar. A tourist visa does not permit employment in the UAE.

No grace period and the AED 50 daily fine

Once a visit visa expires, no extra days are granted. Every day beyond expiry costs AED 50, whichever emirate issued the visa, starting immediately. Overstays beyond 30 days additionally require an exit permit of roughly AED 250 to 300. Our team messages Brunei visitors on WhatsApp ahead of expiry so there is time to extend or leave.

Staying longer than 30 or 60 days

Extensions of 30 days are available three times on a 30 day visa and twice on a 60 day visa, with no exit needed. The maximum total stay is 120 days. Once you reach the maximum, you must exit and re enter, either through an airport to airport visa change or by bus to Oman. Extension applications must be submitted before the current visa expires, so contact us with at least a week remaining.

Another route for Brunei passports

We can also issue a Sharjah 60 day single entry visa for AED 1,200, which requires no security deposit. It is valid for the whole UAE, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Ask us on WhatsApp which option is better for a Brunei passport.

Mistakes Brunei applicants should avoid

• Leaving out the back cover, which immigration requires alongside the data page.
• Passport validity under six months. Renew before applying.
• Low resolution photos of documents, which immigration may reject.
• Past visa problems in the UAE. We assess these before submission so that you are not surprised by a refusal.
• Passports bearing a single name, which require a supporting document before we can apply.
• Booking flights before the visa is approved without allowing enough processing time.

Questions Brunei travellers ask us

When will I receive my visa?

Typically 24 to 72 hours. Immigration sets the timeline and may ask for more documents, so allow three working days or more before your flight.

What does the 30 day visa cost?

The 30 day visa is AED 450 single entry or AED 800 multiple entry, with Indian and Filipino passports at AED 400 and AED 750. Some nationalities may also need a refundable deposit.

What does the 60 day visa cost?

For Brunei passports AED 650 single entry and AED 1,000 multiple entry; Indian and Filipino citizens pay AED 600 and AED 950.

Will immigration ask for proof of funds?

Only for certain nationalities. A UAE resident family member’s statement is accepted in those cases. Regardless, carry a card or cash on arrival in case immigration asks for proof of funds. WhatsApp us to check the rule for Brunei.

Is in country extension possible?

It can be extended in country: three times for a 30 day visa, twice for a 60 day visa, 30 days each, with a 120 day ceiling. After that, exit and re enter on a new visa.

Is there a grace period after the Dubai visa expires?

There is no grace period. Fines of AED 50 per day begin immediately after expiry, and an exit permit costing roughly AED 250 to 300 is needed if the overstay exceeds 30 days.

Is the visa fee refundable if my application is rejected?

No. Visa fees, including the service fee, are not refundable if immigration rejects the application, because the government charge is paid at submission. You may reapply after addressing the reason for refusal.

Can children from Brunei apply for a Dubai visa?

Yes. Minors receive their own visa at the adult price, and we ask for a birth certificate with the usual documents.

Can I work in the UAE on a Dubai visa?

No. A tourist visa does not permit employment. You may attend interviews and visit, but working requires a residence visa sponsored by an employer.
