Brazil's money landscape, in brief
Currency
Transfers into Brazil land in Brazilian real (BRL), so the exchange rate you lock in and the fees quoted up front are what decide how much actually arrives.
How transfers settle
Pix transfers are instant, 24/7, using a Pix key; TED settles same-day for interbank amounts, DOC was retired for most retail use. Availability depends on provider participation. That matters for a transfer sent from Salvador: a provider that delivers onto the local rail typically clears faster than a routed correspondent-bank wire.
Recipient details
Brazilian accounts need bank (3-digit), branch (agência, 4-digit), and account number with a check digit; Pix payments use a registered key (CPF, phone, email, or random key). Getting these recipient details exactly right is the difference between a same-day delivery and a bounced-back transfer.
Regulation
Payments in Brazil are overseen by the Central Bank of Brazil (Banco Central do Brasil). Payment institutions in Brazil must be authorised by the Banco Central do Brasil. Confirm the institution's authorisation before storing funds or initiating transfers.
