certain commodities like sugar, tobacco, and indigo could not be shipped outside the British Empire.
The Navigation Act of 1660 and the Staples Act of 1663, also called the Act for the Encouragement of Trade, required all European goods bound for the Colonies to be shipped through England first. The goods would be unloaded, inspected all duties paid and reloaded on English vessels. Imports of commodities such as sugar and tobacco had to be landed, and tax paid before being sent on to other countries. This increased costs and shipping times.

The British Navigation Acts were a series of laws aimed at regulating colonial trade and ensuring that it benefited England. Key examples include the Navigation Act of 1651, which required that goods imported to England or its colonies be carried on English ships or ships from the colony of origin. Another significant act was the Navigation Act of 1660, which specified that certain "enumerated goods," such as tobacco and sugar, could only be shipped to England or its colonies. These acts were foundational in establishing mercantilism and fostering economic control over colonial resources.
The Navigation Act of 1660 occurred first, establishing trade regulations for the American colonies. The Albany Congress took place in 1754, followed by the Molasses Act of 1733 and the Tea Act of 1773. The Peace of Paris that ended the French and Indian War was signed in 1763.
