Besides this avenue I am aware of atleast two other avenues that a foriegner can operate funds quickly without a permanent visa that is legal.
The individual can also open a business without an RNE and he can operate currency using his Brazilian buisiness, Again responsible actions must be taken afterward. Another misconception is that a foreingner cannot open a buisiness without an RNE #. Also that can be done.

Shawn;
I think that most of us here are aware of being able to open up a brazilian business.....BUT, one MUST have a brazilian, or someone with a permanent visa, in that business and with some kind of percentage....even if it's just .1%.
The kicker with those types of options is that the "legal" person assumes all final rights and responsibilities in respect to the other person in the business or on the account.
In other words, the legal person has all final say from a legal as well as fiscal standpoint even though he may only own .1% of the business or is listed on the account only so it can be opened for the others party's use that person is listed as the "primary" on the account or "administrador" in the business. And to say that the person without the RNE has to 100%, completely trust the other party named (brazilian or legal person in brazil) on the account or in the business can't be overstated enough!
