On July 8, 2026, Brazil's Central Bank (Banco Central do Brasil – BCB) issued Normative Instruction BCB No. 757, establishing procedures for financial institutions to report information regarding foreign currency deposit accounts to the BCB. The instruction implements Article 80-A of BCB Resolution No. 277 (December 31, 2022), which regulates Brazil's foreign exchange market and the movement of Brazilian real and foreign currency values into and out of the country. The instruction applies to all institutions authorized to operate in Brazil's foreign exchange market that maintain foreign currency deposit accounts. These institutions must submit monthly reports using document code C214 (Totals Moved in Foreign Currency Accounts – file ACAM214) by the fifth day of each month, containing information on accounts with movement or balances during the previous month. The reports must be submitted through the File Transfer System (Sistema de Transferência de Arquivos – STA) in XML format, with validation conducted using XML Schema Definition (XSD). Required information includes customer identification, account holder classification, International Bank Account Number (IBAN) format identifiers, foreign currency denomination, reference month, and account value in the denomination currency. Each institution must designate an employee responsible for responding to inquiries about submitted information, registered in the BCB's Information System on Entities of Interest to the Central Bank (Unicad). A director responsible for foreign exchange operations must also be designated in accordance with BCB Resolution No. 277. The instruction enters into force on October 1, 2026. Institutions may correct previously submitted information by resubmitting the complete C214 document for the relevant date-base, which entirely replaces the earlier submission.
