Ways to send money from Brazil to Uruguay

There are 5 ways to send money to Uruguay across 3 money transfer companies.

For everyday transfers

Online transfers

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

You can fund an online transfer with bank transfer and pix.

Revolut charges R$60 and adds -0.15% markup when sending R$40,000, this will get you 294,453.77 UYU in Uruguay.

For property and other large transfers

Currency brokers

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

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

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

Holding AUD and other currencies

Multi-currency accounts

Revolut lets you hold, convert, and spend BRL and UYU from one account.

Swapping R$40,000 with Revolut will get you 309,457.65 UYU after all fees.

You can then spend it in Uruguay or Brazil and receive UYU payments.

For freelancers & businesses

Global accounts

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

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

Ways to fund BRL and receive UYU in Uruguay

With Revolut, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending R$40,000 gives your recipient 309,457.65 UYU.

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

You can fund the transfer with Pix

You can use Pix as a funding method, but it can’t send BRL to Uruguay 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 Uruguay, they can get it as bank 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 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 Uruguay, I suggest starting with these:

Cheapest:

Revolut, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit in Uruguay. Your recipient gets 309,457.65 UYU, which is 0.27% more than the next best option.

Fastest:

Revolut, paid by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. It delivers 309,457.65 UYU 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 Uruguay.

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

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.
