El tributo en la Nueva España se pagaba de la siguiente manera. Los Españoles cobraban el tributo a los indígenas que explotaban en el sistema conocido como la "Encomienda." Los dueños de las tierras o terratenientes usaban a los indígenas como trabajadores y los hacían trabajar a marchas forzadas. Más bien, los explotaban.
