  • Europa Universalis III: Chronicles
I would like to earn as much as possible for tariffs, and I would like to know how to do it. I know that if you have the bonus for trade of slaves it increases 25%, and if you have the National Idea of Vicerroys as well. I think that the more the Navy is the modifier, the more it is entered. Of course, have the necessary number of large ships to enter 100%.

But I do not know if building buildings that increase the production of the overseas province will increase the income from tariffs.

Thank you.

It does not require "Large" ships, a Small Ship will work, once those are researched. Transports don't qualify, and I don't believe that galleys add to the total either. Small combat ships (barques, etc.) are a far more affordable way of meeting the requirement, and don't suck up nearly as much in military maintenance costs. Of course, they're less effective than a Large Ship in a fight, aside from having a couple for boosting the odds of captures at the end.

As for tariff income, I believe that anything which boosts Production in overseas provinces (such as a Level 1 port) will increase the amount of income which your tariffs benefit from. I don't believe that a market affects tariff income, as it only affects Trade.
