Municipalities of Brunei

Municipalities in Brunei are settlements which have been incorporated by the government to run as municipalities. They are independent from the hierarchy of the country's subdivisions but nevertheless overlap with mukims and villages, the second- and third-level administrative divisions of Brunei. The governing body of a municipality is municipal department () which is a government department under the Ministry of Home Affairs; the head is a chairman (, officially ) which is equivalent to mayor.

List There are four settlements in Brunei which have municipal status, namely Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei; Kuala Belait, a town and capital of Belait District; Seria, a town also in Belait District; and Tutong, the town of Tutong District. Although Muara in Brunei-Muara District and Bangar, the capital of Temburong District, are officially known in Malay as and (literally 'Muara Town' and 'Bangar Town'), they do not have municipal status but instead administered as village-level subdivisions. +List of municipalities in BruneiNameType of settlementGoverning bodySubdivisions under municipal jurisdictionMukimVillageBandar Seri Begawancity, capital of BruneiBandar Seri Begawan Municipal DepartmentBerakas 'A' Anggerek Desa Burong Pingai Berakas Jaya Bakti Jaya Setia Orang Kaya Besar Imas Pancha Delima Pengiran Siraja Muda Delima Satu Pulaie SerusopBerakas 'B' Madang Manggis Sungai AkarBurong Pingai Ayer Burong Pingai Ayer Lurong Dalam Pandai Besi 'A' Pandai Besi 'B' Pekan Lama Pengiran Setia Negara Sungai Pandan 'A' Sungai Pandan 'B'Gadong 'B' Beribi Kiarong Kiulap Mata-Mata Menglait Pengkalan GadongKianggeh Berangan City Centre Diplomatic Enclave Kianggeh Kumbang Pasang Parit Pusar Ulak Tasek Lama Tumasek TungkadehKota Batu Belimbing Kota Batu Pelambayan Pintu Malim Sungai LampaiPeramu Bakut Berumput Bakut Siraja Muda 'A' Bakut Siraja Muda 'B' Lurong Sikuna Pekilong Muara Peramu Setia PahlawanSaba Saba Darat 'A' Saba Darat 'B' Saba Laut Saba Tengah Saba UjongSungai Kebun Bolkiah 'A' Bolkiah 'B' Setia 'A' Setia 'B' Sungai Kebun Sungai Siamas Ujong KelinikTamoi Pengiran Bendahara Lama Pengiran Kerma Indera Lama Pengiran Tajuddin Hitam Tamoi Tengah Tamoi UjongKuala Belaittown, capital of Belait DistrictKuala Belait and Seria Municipal DepartmentKuala Belait Kuala Belait Pandan 'A' Pandan 'B' Pandan 'C' Mumong 'A' parts of Mumong 'B'SeriatownSeria parts of Seria Area 1 parts of Seria Area 2Tutongtown, capital of Tutong DistrictTutong Municipal DepartmentPekan Tutong parts of Petani parts of Bukit Bendera
