Review status
Pending human wording, completeness, source-authority, currentness, alignment and rendering review. No legal review performed.
Currentness
Original source edition; not a verified current-law consolidation. Unknown as current law. Signed 2006-05-03; consent law 2006-12-02; gazette publication 2006-12-07. Edition ID year is not a signature date. Treaty entry into force: not resolved as a single source-bound field by the retained audit. Roster general application: 2007-01-01 (not a universal tax-specific rule). Cached official article entry statements (may refer to multiple instruments): 19. Dezember 2006, 30. Juli 2012. Evidence is the retained 2026-10-01 agent audit of source PDF, 2026-01-01 roster and cached official HTML, not a fresh current-law determination. Bounded agent triage, no qualified wording/alignment/legal review. No exhaustive verification of all later 2026 developments. Matching digest proves retained source identity, not legal force.
Protocols and later instruments
Printed signature protocol retained separately and not merged into articles. Later amending protocol signed 2011-05-17, entered into force 2012-07-30, general application 2012-07-30; NOT included in this base source. Tax-specific application needs review. Roster future-instrument/negotiation entry (NOT proof of operative amendment): Slowenien R-P P: 18.03.2024 KR KR. P = Paraphierung (initialled), NOT signature; U = signed, ratification pending; V = negotiation. R-P protocol/R-A replacement. MLI application and complete later amendments, replacements or suspensions are NOT verified. No developments after the retained roster snapshot are certified. This is NOT a current consolidated instrument. Source-triage warnings: Bounded agent triage, no qualified wording/alignment/legal review. No exhaustive verification of all later 2026 developments. Matching digest proves retained source identity, not legal force. Known related/later instruments NOT included in this source (agent triage, not exhaustive): amending-protocol; signature date: 2011-05-17; entry into force: 2012-07-30; general application from: 2012-07-30; limit: Exact tax-specific application remains for protocol review.
