The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C7H10NO)2[SnBr6]·2H2O, contains one cation, one half-dianion and one lattice water molecule. The [SnBr6]2− dianion, located on an inversion center, exhibits a highly distorted octahedral coordination environment, with Sn—Br bond lengths ranging from 2.2426 (9) to 3.0886 (13) Å. In the crystal, O—H⋯Br, N—H⋯Br, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds consolidate the packing, which can be described as consisting of alternating anionic (containing dianions and lattice water molecules) and cationic layers parallel to ab plane.
