Retained BMF source attribution and SHA-256 verified against R3 manifest and historical agent audit, not a fresh network/source-authority determination. Original first PDF page shows gazette page727; treaty begins on printed page728. BMF/manifest citation is BGBl. 1996 II S. 727. This citation is not a statement that the implementing law begins on the treaty's first page. Original and OCR PDF page boxes differ (593.28x841.86 vs593.67x842.4pt); proportional geometry, not pixel identity. ORIGINAL EDITION, unreviewed retained OCR. German and Spanish are printed and named in the closing authenticity clause; no third authentic language is named there, and no third language column was observed in this retained PDF. Spanish is a separate coordinate partition, not the R3 mixed bilingual extraction. No missing authentic language identified from this source clause; this does not certify full-language wording accuracy or external source availability. Unreviewed coordinate-based machine transcription of this original source edition only. OCR words are unchanged; rows reconstructed by word coordinates. Known misspellings and damaged numerals remain visible. Source-observed structural paragraph IDs may differ from erroneous OCR numerals. This is not exact legal transcription. Treaty preamble, closing formula, protocol and shared signatures are separate retained assets, not part of the last article. Full supplements: /review/de-venezuela-1996-base/. PDF page links identify pages, not verified paragraph correspondence. Printed accompanying protocol is separate from treaty articles. Protocol sections1–6 on PDF18–19 retained. Protocol has no separate closing/signature block in this retained PDF; shared signatures appear after treaty closing on PDF17. Six bilingual chapter-heading groups retained separately, not attached to preceding articles.
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 1995-02-08; consent law 1996-04-25; gazette publication 1996-05-06. 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: 1997-01-01 (not a universal tax-specific rule). 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 accompanying protocol retained separately and not merged into articles; separately printed signature availability is source-specific. 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. Printed accompanying protocol is separate from treaty articles. Protocol sections1–6 on PDF18–19 retained. Protocol has no separate closing/signature block in this retained PDF; shared signatures appear after treaty closing on PDF17. Six bilingual chapter-heading groups retained separately, not attached to preceding articles. Source-triage warnings: Bounded agent triage, no qualified wording/alignment/legal review.
