No, you cannot smoke at Brunei International Airport (BWN). The single passenger terminal is entirely smoke-free, with no designated smoking area airside or landside. The ban applies throughout the building and across the airport premises.
Brunei International Airport, in Bandar Seri Begawan, is the country’s sole international airport. Smoking restrictions here are part of Brunei Darussalam’s wider tobacco controls, which give airports no designated-area exemption.
Where to Smoke
There is no designated smoking area at Brunei International Airport, indoors, airside, or outdoors. Under Brunei’s Tobacco Order 2005, smoking is banned in the airport and within 6 metres of smoke-free buildings, so any smoking must take place well away from the terminal on the landside. Plan to finish smoking before you arrive, as there is no on-site spot to use during your visit.
Vaping
The sale and import of e-cigarettes are prohibited in Brunei, and using a vape where smoking is banned is a finable offence. Do not vape at the airport.
