 Under the Domesticum system, any individual age 16-80 is eligible to sign a cautio contract. The maximum length of a single contract is 5 years with a single contract-holder; a ''teneantur'' may enter up to 25 total agreements at once, however.
-To mitigate the sociopolitical consequences, Caphiria enforces a double taxation system on the slave trade. Individuals must pay a 33.3% sales tax, in addition to a $1,000 annual registration fee at the time of purchase.  The second tax is known as the mPQ tax, derived from the ''aequatio animae'' formula. The effective mPQ tax rate is then determined by a fractional multiple of the mPQ, which is then applied to the post-tax purchase price.The mPQ is a multiplier based on the age of the slave, with a logarithmic increase from 16 to 31.5, a linear decrease from 31.5 to 48, and a linear increase from 48 to 80. It is then multiplied by the square root of the contract duration. Taxpayers with slaves under an active contract are also subject to property taxes on the slave, which is based on taxpayer's social class.
