A Distribution mission is a mission to take a piece of cargo from one station to another station. When a Distribution mission is accepted, the necessary cargo is spawned in your personal hangar at the ~~pickup station~~. You then need to haul it to the ~~destination (~~"~~drop~~ off"~~) station~~ using your ship. Usually the agent location is either the "~~pick up~~" or "~~drop off~~" location. Once docked at the destination station you may complete the mission by talking to the agent. The cargo only counts as delivered if it is either in your personal hangar at the destination station, or in your ship's cargo hold while you are docked at the destination station.

A Distribution mission is a mission to take a piece of cargo from one station to another station. When a Distribution mission is accepted, the necessary cargo is spawned in your personal hangar at the "Pickup Location". You then need to haul it to the "Drop-off Location" using your ship. Usually, the agent location is either the "Pickup" or "Drop-ff" location. Once docked at the destination station you may complete the mission by talking to the agent. The cargo only counts as delivered if it is either in your personal hangar at the destination station, or in your ship's cargo hold while you are docked at the destination station.

'''TIP:''' Although located in your ship inventory, cargo held in containers will not be accepted.

Distribution missions never spawn any hazards of their own; you only have to deal with the normal hazards of Stargate travel (gatecamps, suicide gankers, warp interdiction bubbles on Stargates in NullSec, and so on). Level 1 missions will keep you within the agent's constellation, level 2 and level 3 will possibly send you to a neighboring constellation, and level 4 missions will always send you to a neighboring constellation. <ref name="devblog758">https://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/courier-missions-revamp/</ref>

It is worth noting that although you are at the destination station you can still talk to the original agent remotely to complete the mission without going back to the original station. They will be listed in the station's "Agents" tab after you dock, or you can start a conversation with them using your mission journal. However, until you fly back and dock at their station, they will not give you a new mission.

If a Distribution mission has an item as a reward instead of ISK, then the item will appear in your personal hangar at the issuing agent's station, which is usually located in the ~~pickup~~ station.

Level 1 and 2 Distribution missions can be run using frigates, although you may need to use cargo modules in the low slots. Cargo size for L1/L2 missions can be up to 450 {{m3}} in size. For level 3 and 4 courier missions, you will need an industrial hauler ~~because~~ cargo sizes will be in the {{gaps|4|000}}–{{gaps|8|000}} {{m3}} range. Further information is in the following section.
