Members of the public can make payment for the SARS-CoV-2 test or swab test for entering Brunei Darussalam online via http://www.healthinfo.gov.bn/entry-payment/#user/login.
In the first week of its availability, 47 payments were made.
This was revealed by Minister of Health Dato Seri Setia Dr Haji Mohd Isham bin Haji Jaafar during a press conference yesterday at the Ministry of Health’s (MoH) Al-‘Afiah Hall.
