Donations by GringoBrazil9191
Hi, Does anybody know the answer to the following: If I "donate" money from the UK (GBP) to my wife in Brazil (R$), would this money be taxable? Thanks.
If your wife has an ONG or other form of charitable organization then you can. She will need a CNPJ number to receive the money. If not then no. If you wish to send your wife money state that it is for maintenance. This worked for us when my husband ... Read More

This is so sad and so typical of Brazil. The upper classes can commit murder and they get away with it. One law for the poor and one for the rich. I have read this so many times. I hope they rot in hell. They took two lives and are ice cold about ... Read More

http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTn1NbzoRBCbLPCwZDWfDoS9OlUu6CcCOML-uJosN56xBMp11oZWell for those of us expats who were here to witness the fiasco surrounding the XV Pan American Games in 2007 I think most of us will say probably not; or at ...
Attend at your own peril. Everything here is more or less. Mais or menos as they say. Roofs could fall on you, mugging is highly probable. Everything is last minute. That will do and it won't in most cases. I agree Brazil isn't ready. Oh lets not ... Read More
