Chaltok IV was the inhabited fourth planet in the Chaltok system of the Beta Quadrant. This planet was located within the territory of the Romulan Star Empire.
In the 23rd century, Chaltok IV was the location of a Romulan research colony. The colony was nearly destroyed during the testing of a polaric energy device, which led to the signing of the Polaric Test Ban Treaty in 2268. (VOY: "Time and Again")
In 2401, Laris traveled to Chaltok IV to set up diplomatic security. Jean-Luc Picard meant to accompany her, but was unable to do so due to receiving a distress call from Beverly Crusher. He promised to meet Laris on the planet later at a "great bar" where they could watch the sunset. (PIC: "The Next Generation")
