Spacing Guild

"He broke Spacing Guild Charter Regulation 9, Subsection Wesk-3, Paragraph 122 on the use of communication scramblers during the skirmish of Adratharpe 7." "That...are you serious? That's so incredibly minor and petty!"

- Lensa Vos and Kix, on Sidon Ithano

The Spacing Guild was a regulatory body for shipping in the galaxy.

History
The Spacing Guild had a monopoly on shipping. When the Galactic Empire came to power, it granted the newly-nationalized Mining Guild a charter to regulate spice, in conjunction with the Spacing Guild's shipping monopoly and the mining contracts of the Kessel royal family. The Empire also imposed Spacing Guild regulation on trade at Ringo Vinda, alongside Imperial Banking Clan regulation. Senator Jyma Ematt opposed this, and became a political prisoner in the Star Whores nightclub on Coruscant.

The Nosaurian pilot Baghro Woodshaft worked as a cargo speeder driver for the Spacing Guild during the early years of the New Republic, delivering cargo to areas of Coruscant including The Works. He picked up a purple-haired prostitute named Viqi in Newport after a shift, and received a blowjob from her on Slan Street.

During the New Republic Era, New Republic Observer Lensa Vos pursued the pirate Sidon Ithano for allegedly breaking Spacing Guild Charter Regulation 9, Subsection Wesk-3, having used communication scramblers during the skirmish of Adratharpe 7.
