We've used USPS International Priority mail (the one with the tracking number) and it gets to SP pretty quick. I bet Rio would be similar. We've used Global Express from USPS and Fed Ex delivered it, that went fine too.

NOA 2. Really?

Have sent documents to Brasil using FEDEX and USPS.

Letters take 3-4 days FEDEX USPS 2 weeks.

Getting ready to send a couple of documents to Brasil will use FEDEX overnight.

Packages I send USPS 4 weeks.

I always used FedEx to ship to Brazil. They do not have overnight service, but they have 2nd day air. My husband lived on an island off the coast of Rio and I believe it took 2-3 days to get there because the guy had to take a boat out to the island.

These are both good methods. Global Express is the quicker of the two, but about double the price if memory serves me correctly.

We have always used USPS...as others have said, it's cheaper.

My mailed mailed me my birth certificate (with a stamp from the Brazilian consulate in the US) as we need this to get married here. She mailed it last Monday, the 16th and I got it today the 27th (so roughly 10 days). I've noticed that on all of the packages that I have sent here that it has been more or less 10 days. This is just normal USPS.
