Packing and Shipping Tips: how it works in Brazil — first-hand

From real experience

Importing household electronics is recommended due to high local prices and unreliable delivery services.
Travelers should be aware of voltage differences (Brazil uses both 110V and 220V depending on the region). When transporting large amounts of goods, hire professional transfer services or minivans rather than standard ride-hailing cars, and prioritize security for luggage during transit.

It may be possible to bring disassembled computer components (like graphics card, RAM, hard drives) to Brazil.
Declare them if necessary, especially if carrying a significant amount of luggage. Customs scrutiny is typically higher for individuals with multiple bags. It might be easier to purchase a system unit locally if importing the entire PC is a concern.

When traveling to Brazil and bringing used electronics (e.g., PS5, mobile phones) as gifts, it's advisable not to carry original packaging.
Declare them as used personal items for children or family. Customs typically do not create issues for used electronics, especially if they are presented as personal belongings rather than new commercial goods.

When transporting multiple new electronic items to Brazil, it is advisable to dismantle them and pack accessories separately from the main devices.
Removing original packaging and distributing items across different luggage can reduce scrutiny at customs.

When bringing a single piece of handmade jewelry into Brazil without a store receipt, it's advisable to declare it to customs to avoid potential issues.
