This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Brunei (officially, the Brunei Darussalam) relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Brunei must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Brunei and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Brunei, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.
Background
The Bruneian Empire once controlled a large part of the island of Borneo, but in the 19th century lost most of its territory to the Dutch and British. In 1888 what remained of Brunei became a British protectorate. Brunei regained independence on 1 January 1984.
Brunei has been a member of the Berne Convention since 30 August 2006, the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 2 May 2017.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Emergency (Copyright) Order, 1999 as the main copyright law issued by the Executive of Brunei.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
General rules
A work first published in Brunei will be in the public domain because its copyright protection has expired by virtue of the Emergency (Copyright) of 1999 if it meets one of the following criteria:
- Literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works:
- Computer-generated: 50 years from creation.[1999 14(3)]
- Anonymous/pseudonymous: 50 years from creation.[1999 14(2)]

- Otherwise: 125 years from creation.[1999 167(1)(3)(a)]
- Legislative council work: 50 years from creation.[1999 169(3)]
- Act or order
- 50 years from assent of an act.[1999 168(2)]
