  • Common rejection reasons: insufficient funds shown, no confirmed accommodation, unclear purpose of travel
  • Consider routing the application through Brunei's High Commission in Kuala Lumpur if you are already transiting Malaysia
  • Carry printed hotel and flight confirmations even after visa approval, as border officers may re-check them
