The Official Interplanetary Trade Catalogue — Established Sol Year 2091
All freight corridors between the Inner Worlds have been charted, surveyed, and duly licensed by the Interplanetary Commerce Bureau. Mineral rights from the asteroid belt are processed through the Ceres Distribution Hub, while organic compounds transit via the Martian Greenhouse Relay. Each route is subject to quarterly audit and tariff recalculation based on current orbital mechanics.
No unlicensed trade vessel shall operate beyond the Lunar Perimeter without proper manifesting.
* See Appendix C: Congestion Surcharge Tables
Article 7, Section 14 of the Interplanetary Commerce Act establishes the foundational framework for all trade conducted beyond Earth's gravitational sphere of influence. All merchants, freight operators, and independent traders must register with the Bureau of Interplanetary Commerce prior to departure from any licensed spaceport.✱
The tariff schedule is recalculated each quarter to account for fluctuations in orbital distance, fuel costs, and the variable gravitational assistance provided by planetary alignments. Merchants are advised to consult the latest edition of the Ephemeris Trade Tables before filing freight manifests.✱
Failure to comply with manifesting requirements may result in impoundment of cargo, suspension of trade licenses, and referral to the Interplanetary Arbitration Tribunal.
All routes converge at Sol. The Interplanetary Commerce Bureau maintains navigational beacons at every licensed waypoint. Safe travels, merchant.
