The British Parliament passed navigation acts in the 17th and 18th centuries to regulate trade and shipping in the British colonies. These acts required certain goods to only be traded with English ships and restricted colonial trade to only pass through English ports.
The Navigation act was passed in 1651.
The law that required colonies to trade only on English ships is known as the Navigation Acts. These laws were implemented by the British government in the 17th century to regulate colonial trade and ensure that it benefited England's economy. The Navigation Acts aimed to restrict competition from other countries and increase profits for English merchants.
In 1651
The English Parliament passed the Navigation Acts beginning in 1651, with the primary intention of regulating trade between England and its colonies. The most significant of these acts was the Navigation Act of 1660, which reinforced the earlier legislation by stipulating that certain goods produced in the colonies could only be shipped to England or English territories. These acts were part of a broader mercantilist strategy to control colonial trade and ensure that it benefited England economically.
The English Parliament first passed the Navigation Acts in 1651. These laws were designed to regulate colonial trade and ensure that it benefited England economically, primarily by requiring that certain goods be transported on English ships. Subsequent acts and revisions followed, further tightening control over colonial commerce throughout the 17th and 18th centuries.
The first Navigation Act was passed by English parliament in 1651 CE, it stated that goods from Asia, Africa and America could not be transported to England except in English ships. The second Navigation Act was passed in 1660, it forbade importing into or exporting from British colonies except in British ships. The British government passed several other import export laws into the 18th century, however the Navigation Acts were first of these laws.
