Where to Find the Trade Authority in Starfield

Players can discover Trade Authority posts throughout the various systems, typically found near other shops. You can also utilize the company’s kiosk (generally next to the Ship Services), which is another useful mechanism that allows you to access more resources. But if you want the complete package, you can explore these areas to locate multiple Trade Authorities.

The first Trade Authority you’ll most likely stumble upon will be at The Well, a hidden underground location that can be accessed through an elevator near Jemison Mercantile. Once there, you can take a left after the House of the Enlightened building, and you should see a couple of guards stationed at the post.

To the right of Jemison, you’ll find another location at the Wolf system via The Den, a station that you can freely dock (near planet Chthonia.) Players can continue forward at the entryway and then take a left to reach the Trade Authority.

As you start making your way to the right of the map, you can travel to the Cheyenne system (between Narion and Kryx) to reach Akila City. Players must enter the settlement and take a right at the Hitching Post.

You’ll see a green sign for the Trade Authority shortly after, and the doorway will be below it.

The Kryx System – The Key Trade Authority Location

The Trade Authority in the Kryx system is a bit more complicated since you’ll need to join the Crimson Fleet to access it (or you can go head-to-head with them in battle if you’re feeling dangerous.) After you get the all-clear to enter, you can take a left to go inside the Cargo Bay, which is the main hub for resources. Players can take a right toward the Depot and then continue heading forward.

You can use the elevator at the main entrance of Neon to reach the upper platform, where you’ll immediately see the bright sign for the Trade Authority. It isn’t hard to miss, and you can navigate through the rest of the area to trigger the Ryujin Industries faction storyline.

With all the Trade Authority locations out of the way, you can start expanding your inventory with more valuables. Be sure to also check out our How to Buy Resources guide to acquire other types of loot, or you can explore the relevant links below for additional Starfield tips and tricks.
