The regulatory centre
Brazil's federal regulators are headquartered here. Meetings with them carry vocabulary that is fixed by the framework rather than chosen by the speaker, and an interpreter has to know which is which.
Brasília
In Brasília, the counterparty is usually an institution.
Federal government, regulators, embassies and multilateral organisations. The register here is institutional and the protocol is real, which makes it a different interpreting job from a commercial negotiation — and it is why we keep an office in the city.

Brasília: questions we are asked
Does STIB have an office in Brasília?
Yes, at SRTVS 701, Bloco O, Sala 521. It is the office that handles government, regulatory and multilateral work, alongside the São Paulo headquarters.
Do you interpret for meetings with federal regulators?
Yes. These sessions are matched to interpreters familiar with the regulatory framework in question, because much of the vocabulary is defined by the framework rather than descriptive.
Can you support an official delegation visiting several ministries?
Yes. Delegation programmes are covered by an interpreter who travels with the group across the whole agenda, which keeps terminology and context consistent between a ceremonial opening and a technical working session.
Is simultaneous interpreting equipment available in Brasília?
Yes, for seated multilingual sessions such as seminars and hearings, and portable systems for smaller or mobile programmes.
