TV Verdade (English: Truth TV) is a religious broadcast station of the Philippine-based Christian organization, Members Church of God International (Portuguese: Membros da Igreja de Deus Internacional) in Portuguese-speaking countries in Central and South America.

TV Verdade's test broadcast started in December 2009. Its broadcast feed originates from a small garage, around 48 square meters, transformed into a makeshift broadcasting studio located in Florianópolis, Brazil.

TV Verdade airs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via Star One C2 satellite in South American countries and SES-6 satellite which also covers South American countries as a redundancy, including other nations in North America, Europe and North Africa.

The station carries the 24-hour Portuguese broadcast of O Caminho Antigo (English: The Old Path, Tagalog: Ang Dating Daan), the longest-running religious program in the Philippines, hosted by international televangelist Irmão Eli Soriano, the Overall Servant of Members Church of God International (MCGI) (Portuguese: Membros da Igreja de Deus Internacional).
