How to send money from Brazil to Uganda

Pick a company

Start with the cheapest, which is Regency FX at 30,126,185.88 UGX for R$40,000 transfer.

The IOF is the same whichever company you pick, so its about the exchange rate markup and the fees.

You'll need your CPF and a photo ID to register and verify your account.

Ways to send money from Brazil to Uganda

There are 4 ways to send money to Uganda across 3 money transfer companies.

For everyday transfers

Online transfers

For most transfers from Brazil to Uganda, money transfer companies like TapTap Send are the cheapest way.

TapTap Send charges R$0 and adds 0.87% markup when sending R$40,000, this will get you 29,347,336 UGX in Uganda.

For property and other large transfers

Currency brokers

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

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

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

For receiving cash in Portugal

Cash pickup

If your recipient in Uganda needs cash, you can do it with MoneyGram.

Sending R$40,000 will get you USh29,347,336 after the fees with MoneyGram.

You recipient will collect cash at the nearest MoneyGram branch in Uganda.

For freelancers & businesses

Global accounts

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

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

Consider this when sending BRL to Portugal

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/EUR transfer options

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

Cheapest:

Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit in Uganda. Your recipient gets 30,126,185.88 UGX, which is 0.6% more than the next best option.

Fastest:

TapTap Send, paid by debit card with mobile money for the payout. It delivers 29,945,360 UGX in 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 Uganda.

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

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.
