The Larry Charles-directed movie has been passed with no cuts, but consumers have been advised that it contains images of strong sex and sex references.
It has been reported that three scenes in particular caused the film to be unsuitable for younger viewers.
These included a sex scene involving Bruno's pygmy boyfriend, one set at a real swingers' party and one where Bruno mimes oral sex with a deceased member of Milli Vanilli.
A BBFC spokesperson said that it had suggested cuts that could be made to get the film a 15 certificate, but the filmmakers declined the option.
Actor Sacha Baron Cohen's previous big-screen outings Ali G Indahouse and Borat were both given 15 ratings for their theatrical release.
