In view of the ongoing spread of COVID-19 cases in Brunei Darussalam, His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Sa’adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam has consented for the Ministry of Finance and Economy (MoFE) through the Treasury Department to make pension payments to retirees and recipients of derivative pensions (widows and dependents) through their bank accounts from March 2020. This is a precautionary measure to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak.

The Treasury Department informed recipients of pension and derivative pensions (widows and dependents) to provide their personal information by completing the form through the Treasury Department’s website (https://www.mofe.gov.bn) and to email the completed information to [email protected] or via WhatsApp at 7373222.

For recipients of pensions and derivative pensions (widows and dependents) who do not have bank accounts, the Treasury Department payment will be made by cash at the payment counters of the MoFE building within the first 10 working days.

The MoFE requests the cooperation of all to not come in groups, and to leave the premises after collecting their pension payment.
