✕Common Mistakes
Nós temos 30 dias para devolver de graça.
Use "tem" because the subject is "você", not "nós".
Você tem 30 dias para devolver de grátis.
"grátis" is acceptable but mixing it with "de" (e.g., "de grátis") is incorrect.
Você tem 30 dias para devolver grátis.
The adverb should modify the whole clause; use "de graça" or "gratuitamente" instead of placing "grátis" after the infinitive.
Você tem 30 dias de devolução grátis.
Word order changes the meaning; it sounds like a promotion rather than a deadline.

Cultural Tip
In Brazil, the Consumer Defense Code guarantees a 7‑day right of withdrawal for online purchases, but many retailers voluntarily extend the period to 30 days. "De graça" is informal; in formal writing you might prefer "gratuitamente" or "sem custo". Also, be aware that some regions use "devolução grátis" as a marketing slogan, which is slightly different from the legal right to a free return.
