What the pack carries
- Charts of accountsWhat a company installs, and who each chart is published for.
default(default) — 106 accounts, for companies
- TaxesHow many the pack carries, at which distinct rates, and which treatments it can express.
- 2 taxes at rates of 0
not_subject - Periodic declarationThe form the accounts are read into, the cadences it is filed on, and how many boxes it has.
- no periodic return declared
- When it is dueA rule of the country, not a date. A pack that cannot state its rule states nothing.
- no declaration to be due
- The file it is deposited asThe brick of packages/formats that writes it, where one exists.
- no declaration to deposit
- Electronic invoicingThe profile the country imposes, the day it starts, and the text that imposes it.
- no profile — no obligation in law
No text consulted obliges a business in Brunei Darussalam to issue or to accept an electronic invoice, and no Peppol Authority is listed for Brunei Darussalam (OpenPeppol, Peppol Authorities, consulted 2026-10-10; the list names Australia, Belgium, Denmark, England, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Oman, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, Slovakia, Sweden, Taiwan, the Netherlands and the United Arab Emirates). `profile`, `party_scheme` and `vat_scheme` are therefore null: there is no domestic profile to name and no VAT identifier for a scheme to carry, since Brunei Darussalam levies no value added tax. The duty that does exist is the one on printed, serially numbered receipts (Income Tax Act, Chapter 35, section 56A(1)(b)); the Revenue Division's Public Ruling PR No. 01/2021 accepts records kept electronically, but this research found no statement on e-invoicing as such, and absence from the sources consulted is not proof that none exists.

Where the open core stops.
The line is operational, not functional. Everything that keeps working on its own is open core; what needs credentials, a certificate or a channel somebody keeps running is the hosted edition.
