BND to PHP today: Brunei dollar to Philippine peso
1 Brunei dollar = ₱48.8311, and ₱1,000 buys 20.48 BND. Brunei sent US$34 million in cash remittances to the Philippines in 2025 (BSP, preliminary), number 27 of the 50 corridors on this site. Against 2 Oct 2025, when it was ₱45.0514, 1,000 BND brings ₱3,779.72 more (1,000 × ₱3.7797).

Receiving BND transfers in the Philippines
Cash remittances from Brunei reached US$34 million in 2025 (BSP, preliminary).
Brunei dollars sent to the Philippines are normally converted by the sending firm and paid out in pesos: into a bank account, an e-wallet such as GCash or Maya, or as cash at a remittance agent. Ask for the peso amount before you send, because that figure already includes the firm's rate.
If you hold BND cash, Metrobank buys notes at ₱47.1500 (2 Oct 2026, 9:09 AM). Find a registered office near you on the remittance centres by province page, compare e-wallet cash-in and cash-out fees, and check the InstaPay and PESONet fee before moving the pesos to your bank.
How Philippine tax treats BND you receive
- Money family abroad sends you is not part of your gross income: gifts are excluded under NIRC Sec. 32(B)(3), and an OFW's pay earned abroad is not taxed here under Sec. 23(C). Money paid to you for work is income in any currency. More: are remittances taxable?
- OFW remittances are exempt from documentary stamp tax when the recipient shows the OFW's OEC or OWWA certificate (RA 8042 Sec. 35 as amended by RA 10022). More: documentary stamp tax.
- Kept in a foreign currency deposit, the interest of a resident is taxed at a 20% final tax since 1 July 2025 (RA 12214, CMEPA). More: final tax.
- A business converts BND amounts at the BSP rate on the transaction day, is taxed on forex gains only when realized, and loses other rates in an audit unless it filed the sworn statement (BIR RMC 12-2024). More: income tax.

Does the sender owe tax on a large gift from Brunei?
Possibly. Donor's tax is 6% of a donor's total gifts above ₱250,000 in a calendar year (NIRC Sec. 99 as amended by RA 10963), and the sender owes it, not the recipient. At the 2 Oct 2026 rate, ₱250,000 is 5,119.69 BND. Source: RA 10963 (TRAIN), Sec. 99.
