There are 1 ways to send money to Cuba across 2 money transfer companies.
For property and other large transfers
Brokers are best for large transfers, they will negotiate a better BRL/CUP rate, handle the paperwork, and guide you over the phone.
RegencyFX is a good option to try first and compare the quote to your bank and online money transfer specialist, then go with the cheaper option.
For freelancers & businesses
Global accounts like Airwallex, Wise Business, and Payoneer help with international CUP payments, invoicing, receiving payments, and more.
These are great for Brazilian businesses and freelancers, but not personal transfers.

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.
For a R$1,400 payment to Cuba, I suggest starting with these:
Cheapest:
MoneyGram Agent, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit in Cuba. Your recipient gets 5,853.38 CUP, which is 0.03% more than the next best option.
Fastest:
MoneyGram Agent, paid by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. It delivers 5,853.38 CUP in minutes - 3 days.
Pix can be used to deposit BRL from your bank to the transfer company's Brazilian account, but it cannot send money directly to Cuba.
The company then switches to local rails or uses an internal network of accounts to move BRL to Cuba.
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.
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.
The exchange rate affects the CUP amount before fees and tax are added. Tracking the recent BRL/CUP range makes company quotes easier to compare.
