Quick answers about receiving, converting, and spending dollars in Brazil.
Anyone in Brazil who receives, converts, or spends money globally — freelancers, PJ professionals, individuals receiving from family or clients, startups, and businesses paying or receiving internationally.
Not always. Many people receive as individuals (PF), especially for occasional income. Freelancers and recurring international income often benefit from PJ or MEI structures. Our guides help you compare PF vs PJ.
IOF is a Brazilian tax on certain foreign exchange operations. It depends on how you receive and convert funds. Ruvo uses stablecoin rails that can help eligible users avoid IOF on many flows — see our IOF guides for details.
SWIFT is the traditional international wire network — widely accepted but often slower and more expensive. ACH is a U.S. domestic payment system that's typically free or low-cost for USD receipts. Ruvo provides U.S. account details for ACH receipts.
Our calculators use Ruvo's live pricing to estimate fees and FX costs for common flows — receiving USD, converting to BRL, and sending abroad. Results are indicative; final amounts appear in the app.
