Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send R$40,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what R$40,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.

The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.

When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more CNY per BRL than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of CNY on every transfer from Brazil.

Right now, Regency FX pays 49,708.26 CNY on 40,000 BRL, which is 134.58 CNY less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 53,679.91 CNY.

If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Cheapest over time

Picking the cheapest money transfer company

Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to China.

We've tracked 138 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 6 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 62 comparisons

    Cheapest in 98% of them

  2. MoneyGramAppeared in 130 comparisons

    Cheapest in 8% of them

  3. TapTap SendAppeared in 135 comparisons

    Cheapest in 11% of them

Based on 138 comparisons across 6 amounts over the last 30 days.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.

To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).

Today Regency FX is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

MoneyGram (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 8% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to China.

Ways to send money from Brazil to China

There are 6 ways to send money to China across 4 money transfer companies.

For everyday transfers

Online transfers

For most transfers from Brazil to China, money transfer companies like MoneyGram are the cheapest way.

You can fund an online transfer with bank transfer, pix, and debit card.

MoneyGram charges R$0 and adds 0.88% markup when sending R$40,000, this will get you 49,404 CNY in China.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 15 of the 30 days it quoted.

For property and other large transfers

Currency brokers

Brokers are best for large transfers, they will negotiate a better BRL/CNY rate, handle the paperwork, and guide you over the phone.

Regency FX converts BRL to CNY with an exchange-rate markup of around 0.27%.

I'd suggest , since the rate gets better the more you send.

Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 100% of the transfers from R$40,000 it quoted.

Holding AUD and other currencies

Multi-currency accounts

Wise lets you hold, convert, and spend BRL and CNY from one account.

Swapping R$40,000 with Wise will get you 46,111.09 CNY after all fees.

Over the past month, it came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.

You can then spend it in China or Brazil and receive CNY payments.

For freelancers & businesses

Global accounts

Global accounts like Airwallex, Wise Business, and Payoneer help with international CNY payments, invoicing, receiving payments, and more.

These are great for Brazilian businesses and freelancers, but not personal transfers.

Ways to fund BRL and receive CNY in China

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending R$40,000 gives your recipient 49,708.26 CNY.

For paying for your transfer, you have bank transfer, pix, and debit card.

You can fund the transfer with Pix

You can use Pix as a funding method, but it can’t send BRL to China directly.

Scan the company's QR code or copy its Pix key, then approve R$40,000 in your Brazilian banking app.

For withdrawals in China, they can get it as bank deposit, mobile wallet, and card deposit.

IOF can apply when you convert and send BRL abroad, so double check the tax shown before you send.

Consider this when sending BRL to China

Brazilian transfer quotes should show the tax, fee and exchange rate. The easiest way to compare them is through the VET, then check whether the payment is a transfer of your own money or a gift.

Compare BRL/CNY transfer options

For a R$40,000 payment to China, I suggest starting with these:

Cheapest:

Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit in China. Your recipient gets 49,708.26 CNY, which is 0.61% more than the next best option.

Fastest:

Wise, paid by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. It delivers 46,111.09 CNY in within minutes.

Pix can fund but not send

Pix can be used to deposit BRL from your bank to the transfer company's Brazilian account, but it cannot send money directly to China.

The company then switches to local rails or uses an internal network of accounts to move BRL to China.

A gift can have a separate state tax

Moving your own money and making a gift are not treated the same.

A gift may fall under ITCMD, which is set and collected by the relevant Brazilian state.

The rate, exemption and filing process depend on the state and the facts of the gift.

Check this before sending a large amount to family, particularly when the sender, recipient or estate has links to different states.

Use a company authorised for câmbio

The Banco Central do Brasil says an authorised institution or its correspondent should explain the required documents and provide the VET.

If in doubt, check the institution's legal name with the Banco Central before sending.

Reclame Aqui can show service problems, but it does not replace the regulatory check.
