Going from Miri to Lawas by road, do you have to across Brunei to get there? do you have pay for toll or have passport?

Need to go around it. Try driving through the National Parks.

You can't. They tell you to pump at special foreigner pump with marked up price.

issued temporary passing vehicle i think

Need to pass 8 border check point to get to Lawas

Good luck if u plan to make it in the weekend

Through, going around it is an option taken only if Brunei got zombie apocalypse

need to go through like several check point which will take hours
thn u cannot even have tinted on your car else have to add saman

go through Brunei is shit.. they will saman u if ur windows are tinted.. mmg ccb punya

Oh ..3 dollar to pass Kuala belait bridge for Malaysian registered car

And If u intend to refuel car at nearby border , they cap at 5 dollar

Petrol station nearby highway won't entertain you

don't worry, its a short drive from miri to lawas, just make sure you have the following:
1. car fuel is enough - fill in malaysia side; if you fill in brunei side; you will pay the marked-up price at a special pump; dont do it unless emergency
2. car registration for brunei custom done online nowadays - save the QR code onto your phone; via screenshot and put your phone screen brightness to max when scanning at border later
3. toll is BND/SGD 3 at kuala belait
4. if you are not sarawakian; make sure to bring the sarawak entry slip or the dokumen perjalanan terhad along to exit malaysia border
5. car tint is not allowed in brunei - depends on your luck - summon is 50 BND; and yes... even the default new car UV tint also will kena... as long as you wind down the window and got a tint layer, police will summon... all brunei car have ZERO tint... except for the "special" folks

pm me if you need more info... enjoy the drive!

dont forget to register your vehicle pass on9 and print it out. Later need to scan at the border.

My car dont kena pun.. 50% vlt summore.. lol.. just did KK-SIBU .. make sure u dont have the tint strip on top of windscreen tu..

Fuel 1 tank can do round trip laa..

hahahaha u have better luck than me i guess... my 4wd only got the default UV tint... 50 bnd gone
the check-point is in between KB and Seria though... on the main highway

Brunei car allowed to tint already. But not very sure how is it applicable to Msia car on enforcement

not all petrol station allowed to sell petrol to car with foreign car plate. ada pun selling hiked up price

just pump full at miri, u can reach lawas with half of ur fuel still there

need passport and pray if ur car got tinted, there is no road block at brunei

if there is, prepare to fork out rm180 malaysia ringgit or brunei 50 dollar to pay the summon on the spot.

no excuse, even light tinted also kena

and dont forget to apply for car document in here
