How long does it take to send money to Brazil?

Typically, it a few minutes to five business days to send money to Brazil.

However, the exact timeframe depends on a few factors, such as where you’re sending money from, the type of transaction you’re making, and your payment method. The time of day can also make a difference, as certain options are only available during local business hours or on non-holiday weekdays. Setting up a Brazil remittance outside those hours could delay your money transfer.

The quickest ways to send money to Brazil include credit or debit card payments and cash pickups. With these methods, your recipient typically receives the money within minutes or hours. You can also do a bank transfer if you’re not in a hurry. These usually take 3-5 business days.

How can I track my transfer to Brazil?

We know how important it is to be able to track your Brazil money transfer. For this reason, we’ve developed an advanced online tool called “Track a Transfer” that lets you monitor your transfer in real time from anywhere in the world.

If you already have a Ria account, log in and select “Track a transfer” from the website or “Track” from the app. You’ll need to provide the personal identification number (PIN) associated with the transfer to see its current status. Australian senders must also input their date of birth and the recipient’s country.The good news is that you don’t need an account to use the Track a Transfer tool — as long as you have the PIN. This makes it easy for both you and your recipient to see the status of the money transfer to Brazil.

Additionally, you’ll receive email updates regarding the status of the transfer. This also ensures you stay updated on any significant changes to the transfer, such as when it arrives or if there are any delays.
