Language
Portuguese is the official language of Brazil. Fenalaw sessions are primarily aimed at the Brazilian legal market, so plan for Portuguese-language content unless the official programme states otherwise. English is common in international hotels but less reliable in everyday settings; a translation app helps.
Business dress
São Paulo's legal sector tends toward business formal or smart business attire. Most attendees at legal conferences wear suits, tailored dresses, or smart office wear; check organiser guidance for evening receptions.
Greetings and punctuality
A firm handshake and direct eye contact are standard in business settings. Exchange business cards at the start of meetings. Build buffer time for arrivals because traffic congestion can affect punctuality.
Weather in late October
Late October is spring in São Paulo, with mild temperatures and a chance of rain. Pack layers, a compact umbrella, and comfortable shoes for walking between halls and transport stops.
Currency and payments
The local currency is the Brazilian real (BRL). Credit and debit cards are widely accepted in hotels and restaurants, but carry some cash for small purchases. Check exchange rates and card fees before travel.
Safety and local transport
Use standard big-city precautions: keep valuables secure, avoid displaying expensive items, and prefer app-based rides or licensed taxis at night. Confirm return transport from Transamerica Expo Center before evening sessions.
Tipping
Restaurant bills often include a 10% service charge; check the bill before adding an extra tip. Taxi and rideshare tipping practices vary, and card payments are common.
