Taxa Innocentiana was a decree issued by Pope Innocent XI on 1 Oct., 1678, regulating the fees that might be demanded or accepted by episcopal chancery offices for various acts, instruments, or writings. According to the decree, bishops or their officials were not allowed to accept anything though freely offered: * for ordinations or anything connected therewith, such as dimissorial letters, etc.; * for institution to benefices; * for matrimonial dispensations.
