Source & edition

Germany / South Africa, 2008 convention source publication

Edition-specific publisher status

BMF currently lists the agreement dated 9 September 2008 as “noch nicht in Kraft getreten”. This is the 2008 source publication, not the 1973 agreement. BMF separately lists the amending protocol dated 6 March 2024 as not yet in force; that separate protocol is not incorporated here. The integral protocol supplied with the 2008 source remains part of this edition. Entry/termination provisions in the treaty body are conditions, not evidence that this agreement entered into force. The source reader may remain searchable with this label.

Edition notes and known limitations

Entry/termination clauses are source wording, not proof of ratification or operation. References to the 1973 agreement inside the 2008 source remain verbatim, but no 1973/1974 body has been imported.

The separate 2024 protocol is not incorporated. Not part of any current-law count.

BMF currently lists the agreement dated 9 September 2008 as “noch nicht in Kraft getreten”. This is the 2008 source publication, not the 1973 agreement. BMF separately lists the amending protocol dated 6 March 2024 as not yet in force; that separate protocol is not incorporated here. The integral protocol supplied with the 2008 source remains part of this edition. Entry/termination provisions in the treaty body are conditions, not evidence that this agreement entered into force.
