No visa-on-arrival — plan ahead
Bruneian citizens cannot get a Palestinian visa at the border. Arriving without a visa means you'll be refused entry. Apply well in advance through the nearest Palestinian diplomatic mission.
Entry via Israel
Most travellers enter the West Bank through Israel (Ben Gurion Airport) or Jordan (Allenby Bridge). You'll need to clear Israeli border control, which has its own entry rules. Check Israeli visa requirements for Bruneian citizens before you go.
What happens at the border
1
Contact the Palestinian diplomatic mission
Find the nearest Palestinian embassy or consulate (or the one that covers your region). Call or email to ask about visa application procedures, required documents, and fees. If there's no Palestinian mission in Brunei, you may need to apply through a mission in a neighboring country or use a visa service.
2
Prepare your documents
Gather your passport (valid 6+ months), completed application form, passport photos, travel itinerary, accommodation proof, and any other documents requested by the mission. Make copies of everything.
3
Submit your application
Submit your application in person or by mail, depending on the mission's rules. Pay the visa fee and wait for processing. Processing times vary, so apply well in advance of your trip.
4
Receive your visa
Once approved, your passport will be returned with the visa stamped inside. Check the visa's validity dates and any conditions (like single vs. multiple entry).
5
Arrive at the border
When you arrive in Palestine (typically via Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv or the Allenby Bridge crossing from Jordan), present your passport with the visa to border control. Be ready to answer questions about your stay and show your return ticket if asked.
