Official wording

Brunei (30 days)…The period of stay granted upon landing permission will be "15 days" for Indonesia and Thailand, “30 days” for Brunei and Qatar, and "90 days" for other countries and regions.

Aevamo’s reading

The Immigration Control and Refugee Recognition Act, Article 6(1), is the provision that imposes the requirement on an alien landing in Japan to hold a valid passport bearing a Japanese consular visa and creates the exemption for passports covered by an international agreement or a notification to foreign governments. The MOFA list (mofa-novisa) records which countries the notification-based exemption currently covers; it reports the exemption rather than creating the obligation.

The table entry names Brunei with a 30-day marker and the period sentence confirms Brunei and Qatar receive a 30-day stay; Brunei passport holders are therefore visa-free for 30 days.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions

Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
