I'm trying to get a battery for my macbook pro, I’m not on US though and so it cannot be shipped. I see a bunch of batteries from other sources and I’m not sure how to tell if a battery is good or not. Does anyone knows who’s the supplier of the batteries sold at iFixIt, so I can try to get one from sellers who ship to my country?
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Because iFixit makes a profit off of sourcing and marking up their OEM parts, I doubt they will share their supplier of batteries. However, you can read about iFixit’s battery testing here.
iFixit has a European store which I believe will ship you a battery if you are in the EU. The part you are looking for can be found here.

My MacBook Pro 2015 was refurbed in 2018 so haven’t had to try this fortunately but for my 17” 09 model I found all the sellers in Europe ship much smaller batteries than Apple spec instead I ordered from ferising on aliexpress and batteries fine.

I remember when they broke ground to build the capital in the middle of the rain forest when I was in elementary school! I had a chance to visit for a short business trip back in the 70's seeing all of the construction flying in. I was amazed how it had grown then. Now looking via Google maps I see it has exploded! Quite amazing!
Getting back to your conundrum here ...
Being so isolated in the middle of the country makes getting parts like batteries harder! Are you able to travel to Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo? There are both Apple Stores and independent repair shops that should be able to help you. If not, do you have a friend who can get a battery for you?
Ordering directly from China is not wise as legally you can't it shipped to you by air without meeting some strict guidelines that large import companies can do.
