[hschmid]

My daughter is currently staying in Brazil. 

When I want to send money from my email account (linked to my german bank account) to her,

I get the message

sorry the recipient can´t accept personal payments

what do I have to configure ?

[DPCreations]

That would likely be a currency control measure implemented by Brazil.

[hschmid]

Are there any countries who can send money to Brasil ?

@hschmid

Brazilian PayPal accounts cannot receive personal payments. The payment will need to be sent as a purchase and the recipient will be charged a payment receiving fee.

International payments: 7.4% + R$0.60 BRL

Domestic payments: 4.99% + R$0.60 BRL

Here is info posted by PayPal staff on this topic...

"As of June 21st, 2011 you cannot send personal payments to anyone in Brazil. This is to comply with banking regulations in Brazil, so while we would like to give you the option to send personal payments, we have to follow the rules. Your only option now is to send a payment for goods or services, which does include a fee."
