Brunei outline
Background music in Brunei venues
One window: BruMusic joint licence covers BeAT authors + recordings. Clearer than Thailand multi-CMO and simpler than Malaysia’s three invoices — but rate card is quote-based, not a public gazette Thon can neo yet.
Three things to remember
- Number / status: BruMusic issues venue rate cards on request (Obtain Licence). Thon maps the path at /bn/app/ — no invented BND fee.
- Who to pay: BruMusic · BeAT Berhad. Keep the invoice / licence in the premises’ name and address.
- Not this: A final invoice from Thon · legal advice · collecting for CMOs. Verify before you wire.

One door vs three
Malaysia often needs MACP+PPM+RPM. Brunei steers venues to BruMusic alone for the joint blanket. Still pay — just fewer counters.
Why outline on numbers
Public site points to contact for tariffs. Until a published card is line-checked, Thon ships path + proof only.
