The Sugar Act of 1764 was a British law that imposed duties on sugar and molasses imported into the American colonies, aiming to raise revenue and reduce colonial smuggling. It replaced the Molasses Act of 1733 and was part of a series of measures that heightened tensions between Britain and the colonies. In 1765, the Stamp Act was enacted, requiring colonists to purchase special stamped paper for various printed materials, including legal documents and newspapers. Both acts contributed to colonial dissatisfaction and were significant catalysts for the American Revolution, as they were seen as direct taxation without representation.
The Stamp Act required that many printed materials in the American colonies be produced on paper made in London with a tax stamp. The Sugar Act was a tax on sugar and molasses.
