Does Apple accept iPhones purchased in Brazil in its Trade-In program in Orlando/FL? I will be traveling to Orlando/FL in April/2025 and intend to give my used iPhone purchased in Brazil as credit (Trade-In) towards the purchase of a new one.

iPhone 13, iOS 18
While Apple Trade In can be done internationally, there is a caveat. When you Trade In your iPhone, you can receive the credit towards the purchase of a new iPhone or in the form of a Gift Card. If you choose the iPhone, that will be an iPhone intended for sale in the U.S., meaning if you intend to use it back in Brazil, there will be issues. For example, if you want service done on your iPhone, you will have to return to the U.S. for that. If you plan to get it in the form of a Gift Card, that will only be redeemable in the U.S. The best option would still be to do the Trade In in your original country Brazil.

Generally, you can trade in an iPhone from another region or country in the US. The serial number is used to determine country and combined with condition and features (storage capacity) a trade in price is determined.
Can I trade in an iPhone purchased in Brazil for a new one in Orlando/FL?
