International Arrivals (GIG) — Terminal 2
- After landing, follow airport signs for Arrivals and Passport Control / Immigration (for international flights).
- Complete Immigration, then continue to Baggage Claim.
- After collecting luggage, follow signs for Customs and proceed through the inspection/exit.
- As soon as you enter the public arrivals hall (landside), slow down and scan for overhead signs reading “ATM”, “Caixa eletrônico”, or “Banco24Horas”.
- Walk toward the ATM cluster area (at GIG, multiple banks’ ATMs are commonly grouped together in arrivals).
- If your foreign card is picky, start with a Banco24Horas machine (red), then try a major-bank ATM (Itaú, Bradesco, Santander, Caixa) if needed.
- Withdraw what you need, then continue toward the ride pick-up / taxi / app-car flow.
- If you accidentally exit toward the curbside first, turn back inside and follow ATM / Caixa eletrônico signage in the arrivals hall.
Domestic Arrivals (GIG) — Terminal 2
- After landing, follow signs for Arrivals and Baggage Claim.
- Collect your luggage, then follow the flow out into the public arrivals hall (landside).
- Look for a bank/ATM zone near the main exits—GIG commonly places ATMs close to where passengers naturally funnel out.
- Head to the nearest multi-bank ATM cluster (you may see several banks side-by-side).
- Withdraw cash before you head out to ground transport (buses, taxis, app rides).
- If the arrivals hall is crowded, step slightly away from the main exit doors—ATM clusters are often just off the centerline of the foot traffic.
Departures / Check-in (GIG) — Terminal 2
- If you want cash before security, go to Level 2 (Check-in) in Terminal 2.
- Scan the public hall for ATM signage near airline check-in islands and service counters.
- Use landside ATMs here if you prefer more space and time (especially helpful when arrivals is busy).
- If you are already airside, look along the main retail corridor after security—ATMs are typically placed near high-foot-traffic shops and food options.
Quick GIG Landmarks That Mean You’re Close
- Arrivals (best bet): If you’ve just entered the public arrivals hall, you’re in the most reliable ATM zone—this is where clusters are usually located.
- Check-in level: If you’re under the large terminal departure boards and airline counters, you’re near landside ATMs (follow “ATM/Caixa eletrônico” signs).
- Airside: If you’re walking the main post-security shopping corridor toward gates, keep an eye on the sides of the walkway—ATMs are often placed near convenience stores and food areas.

ATM Withdrawal Tips & Advice for Rio de Janeiro — Galeao Airport (GIG)
- Start in Terminal 2 arrivals. Even if your flight parks elsewhere, Terminal 2 is the main passenger terminal for GIG operations, and the most dependable place to find multiple bank ATMs clustered together right after you exit into the public arrivals hall.
- If your foreign debit card fails at one bank, switch to Banco24Horas. GIG typically has red Banco24Horas machines in the main public zones; these are commonly the easiest option for international cards compared with some bank-branded ATMs.
- Expect a visible “ATM access fee” prompt at Banco24Horas. If you see a fee confirmation screen, that charge is from the machine/operator (separate from your bank’s fees). If the fee looks unusually high, cancel and try a different bank’s ATM in the same cluster.
- Use landside ATMs if you want flexibility. Landside (public-area) ATMs in arrivals and the check-in hall are accessible without a boarding pass and are usually easier for families and travelers with lots of luggage.
- Use airside ATMs only after you’re sure you won’t need to go back out. Once you pass security, your nearest ATM may be inside the terminal retail corridor. That’s convenient, but it’s not ideal if you still need to meet someone landside or arrange transport.
- Time your withdrawal around ground transport. If you’re heading straight into a taxi/app ride, withdraw only what you need for incidental cash spending—Rio is largely card-friendly, and carrying large amounts of cash after leaving the terminal is unnecessary.
- Prefer ATM clusters over isolated machines. In a cluster, you can switch banks quickly if a machine is out of service, low on cash, or has a queue—without leaving the well-lit, monitored public terminal area.
- Check for “conversion” prompts and decline them. Some ATMs may offer to convert the withdrawal into your home currency. For GIG machines, it’s usually better to withdraw in BRL (local currency) so your card network sets the exchange rate.
- When Terminal 1 access is limited, don’t waste time hunting there. If you can’t easily enter Terminal 1 public areas, go straight to Terminal 2 (connected via covered walkway) where the main arrivals/check-in amenities are concentrated.

What fees should I expect at GIG ATMs?
You may see two types of fees: (1) an ATM/operator access fee (commonly shown on-screen before you confirm) and (2) your own bank’s foreign withdrawal and exchange fees. If the on-screen fee looks high, cancel and try a different bank ATM in the same terminal cluster.
Are the ATMs open 24 hours at GIG?

Arrivals (Terminal 2, landside) is usually best because it’s easier to access with luggage and you’ll often find multiple banks together. Departures/check-in is a good backup if arrivals is busy.
