Life

Prince Azim was born in Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei on 29 July 1982. He was the eldest child of the Sultan of Brunei, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, and Pengiran Isteri Hajah Mariam. He was educated at International School Brunei, Raffles Institution, and Oxford Brookes University.

In 2008, Prince Azim was sent to attend the nine-month officer training course at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, but he dropped out after one week.

In 2009, he designed unisex weekend bags for MCM. The proceeds went to the Make A Wish Foundation UK, a charity in which he is one of the patrons.

In May 2011, at a charity show in Brunei Darussalam, held at the Empire Hotel and Country Club's Indera Samudra Hall at which 31 persons with autism performed, Prince Azim said that those with autism should be treated with respect, "as would to any of your family members". 

On 27 April 2013 at the opening of the 2nd ASEAN Autism Network (AAN) Congress, he urged that appropriate support be given to families with autistic family members.

He was a producer with the London-based film company Daryl Prince Productions which produced You're Not You. His father's pro-sharia stances had negatively affected the prince's meddling with the Hollywood crowd. He was a prominent figure of the international jetset.  Prince Azim was reported to have had a net worth of 5 billion $US at the time of his death.

Death

Prince Azim died on 24 October 2020 at the Jerudong Park Medical Centre in Jerudong following a long illness. He was 38 years old at the time of his death. The official announcement of his death was announced later the day he died.

He was laid to rest beside his grandfather, Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III at the Royal Mausoleum in Bandar Seri Begawan after Asar prayer.
