Bargaining Etiquette in Brunei

Bargaining is generally limited to markets, small stalls, and informal purchases, while prices in malls, restaurants, and most shops are fixed and expected to be paid as marked. In Brunei’s relatively orderly retail culture, a polite, low-key request for a small discount may be accepted at bazaars or with street vendors, but pushing hard or haggling aggressively is usually seen as rude.
