The Rin make use of a galaxy wide taxing system. There are many forms of payment for example soldiers, equipment, and food stuff but, most worlds pay in hard currency.

A basic tax was set down long ago for the most part the upper classes take the burden of tax (Upwards of 25% taxation rate.) while most of the lower class have a solid 10% tax and the even lower class are generally exempt from taxation.

On some worlds they could offer something more. For example the forge worlds provide massive amounts of weapons, equipment, and other such things instead of paying in currency.

Other worlds provide soldiers and entire legions of troops for imperial service. Generally these worlds will raise huge amounts of legions.

And some worlds are too poor to pay planet wide tax. Instead they lease out land and provide 55% of all material created on this world.

If a traveler takes a 'extended' voyage they are expected to pay all back taxes when they arrive at their destination. Also tariffs do exist.

Taxation is collected once every 3 months and is collected by the TCA (Tax collection agency.) Of course if a individual or an entire world refuses to pay taxes the TCA troopers will be sent down upon them.
