Entry to Brunei: Travellers only need to take Antigen test, no more self-isolation upon arrival

The infographic shared by Ukas states the announcement regarding travellers’ entry to Brunei, this April 1.

MIRI (March 30): Travellers, including Sarawakians, who have recovered from Covid-19 within 90 days, are only required to undergo Antigen Rapid Test (ART) upon arrival in Brunei, effective this April 1.

The Ministry of Health Brunei, in a statement, said besides the exemption from taking the Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) swab before leaving their countries of origin, there would be no need for the travellers to undergo mandatory self-isolation upon arrival in the sultanate.

“They are only required to undergo ART upon arrival in Brunei Darussalam, where the cost of the test upon arrival is B$20 per person,” it said.

In an infographic shared by the Sarawak Public Communications Unit (Ukas), the Ministry of Health Brunei conveyed the statement much clearer: “Any individual who enters Brunei Darussalam and has been infected with Covid-19, as well as has evidence of infection such as a ‘Recovery Certificate’ where the validity period of the evidence of infection is not more than 90 days, therefore these  individuals are exempted from being required to undergo RT-PCR swab-test before leaving the country of origin.”
