Taxi

There are reportedly only 40 taxis in the whole of Brunei due to the high private ownership of cars; 10 of these taxis frequent the airport while 8 can be found at Belait District. You’ll have little chance of finding a taxi on the streets, especially during the peak rush hour times in morning and early afternoon. If you need a taxi it will be better to call them directly. The main taxi depot is located north of the capital’s only bus station at Jalan Cator. None of the taxis have a meter as there is neither an official company nor government regulations forcing one. Drivers have fixed prices on particular trips though tariffs can vary from driver to driver. For longer trips into the country it is probably more economical to hire a car.
