In the title compound, C5H6BrN2+·C4H5O4-, the pyridine N atom of the 2-amino-5-bromopyridine molecule is protonated. The protonated N atom and the amino group are linked via N-H
O hydrogen bonds to the carboxylate O atoms of the singly deprotonated succinate anion. The hydrogen succinate anions are linked via O-H
O hydrogen bonds. A weak intermolecular C-H
O hydrogen bond is also observed.
