  "title": "Dominican Republic DGII Sworn Declaration of Motor Vehicle Transfer (Declaración Jurada de Transferencia de Vehículos de Motor, Formulario FI-VHM-308)",
  "description": "The Dirección General de Impuestos Internos' (DGII) Formulario FI-VHM-308, a single-page sworn declaration ('declaración jurada') a vehicle seller files with DGII's Departamento de Vehículos de Motor to record the sale/transfer of a motor vehicle for tax-roll ('descargo') purposes. It identifies the seller, optionally the buyer (Section II), the vehicle, and the sale's own terms, and — when the seller does not know the buyer's identity — carries its own fallback sworn statement (Section V) substituting for Section II. This document opens the Dominican Republic's DMV vertical (3 of 6 verticals for the jurisdiction, following `do/dgii/annual-corporate-income-tax-return-ir-2` (Taxes) and `do/mirex/passport-application` (Passport)). The form ships as a `.zip` containing a single-worksheet `.xlsx` (a print-and-fill layout, not a live AcroForm/e-filing widget), is freely downloadable from DGII's own vehiculosMotor forms page with no login/CAPTCHA/WAF gate, and is one of four sibling forms on that same page (FI-VHM-308 itself, GRCIV-011 'Solicitud de Eliminación de Vehículos de Motor', FI-VHM-312 'Solicitud Reembolso del Impuesto de Circulación Vehicular', and FI-ADML-007 'Solicitud de Certificaciones') — FI-VHM-308 was chosen as this vertical's opening document because a sale/transfer declaration is the closest functional analogue to a DMV title-transfer transaction already established in this registry (e.g. `cl/sii/aviso-venta-vehiculo`, `br/mg/detran/comunicacao-de-venda-de-veiculo`). Deliberately out of scope: the 'Departamento de Vehículos de Motor' office header (not applicant data); 'Firma del Declarante' (a wet-ink signature captured in person, excluded per this registry's treatment of physical signature/biometric capture elsewhere, e.g. `do/mirex/passport-application`); and the '(*) Datos Obligatorios' legend and Section V's own footnote, both instructional text rather than fields.

    "notes": "GOV-3166, picked up directly from the GOV-3152 cycle's pre-scouted, disclosed-backlog candidate (GOV-3166 itself), re-verified from scratch rather than trusted as-is: fetched fresh via a plain `curl` (no browser User-Agent needed), HTTP 200, `Content-Type: application/zip`, 45,504 bytes, sha256 `21e4f72d6f2fb2454ab4b60f6c379f7e24d6a12e0e10aaf66ed5c651a0881932`. The zip contains one file, `FI-VHM-308 Formulario Declaración Jurada de Transferencia de Vehículos de Motor.xlsx` (56,408 bytes, sha256 `945addf62d6d5e0b326a73afce9bafd33d39fa7339169bdacff3f0b45b14b74f`), a single-worksheet OOXML `.xlsx` with no embedded VBA macro. Parsed directly via Python's stdlib `zipfile`/`xml.etree` (no `openpyxl`/`pip` available or needed) against the workbook's own `xl/sharedStrings.xml` and `xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml` parts, cross-referenced by cell reference (e.g. `C16`, `K16`) and `mergeCell` ranges to reconstruct the print layout's field grid section by section. Unlike the xlsx forms handled in GOV-3104/GOV-3114 (Pakistan IT-1B, Dominican Republic IR-2), this workbook carries no `dataValidations` element at all — it is a plain print-and-fill layout with no cell-level validation rules to decode, confirmed by a direct string search of the raw sheet XML for the literal substring `dataValidation` (absent). Requiredness instead follows the form's own printed `*` convention, cross-checked cell-by-cell: every field-label string ending in `*` (Cédula/RNC*, Nombre/Razón Social*, Celular*, Sector*, Municipio*, Provincia*, Placa*, Marca*, Modelo*, Año*, Monto de la Venta (RD$)*) was marked required, plus one label — 'Teléfono' in Section I only — whose asterisk is rendered as a separate single-character shared-string cell (`F21`, string index 26, literal `*`) immediately adjacent to the label cell (`C21`) rather than concatenated into the same string; this stray-asterisk cell was independently confirmed unique to Section I's Teléfono (a full-sheet scan for any other standalone `*`-only cell found none), and Section II's own 'Teléfono'/'Celular' labels (rows 39) carry no such adjacent marker, consistent with Section II being fully optional per the form's own footnote (string index 34): 'Si no conoce los datos del comprador continuar en la casilla III' ('If you don't know the buyer's data, continue at box III') — i.e. Section II (buyer identification) may be skipped entirely, with Section V's own fallback sworn statement ('Yo, ___, Declaro bajo Fe de juramento que el vehículo indicado... fue vendido por mi... y que desconozco los datos del comprador...') used in its place. No boolean/enum field on the form itself marks 'buyer data unknown', so Section V's `declarantFullName` is modeled `required: false` (completed in lieu of Section II, not gated by a fabricated `requiredWhen` condition) rather than inventing a cross-field rule the source does not itself express — the same disclosed-rather-than-fabricated approach used for `cl/sii/aviso-venta-vehiculo`'s conditionally-mandatory Sección D/E fields. Three fields carry no asterisk despite apparent practical necessity and are modeled `required: false` strictly per the source's own convention, not overridden by domain judgment: the top-of-form declaration date ('Fecha', día/mes/año boxes — the document's own execution date), 'Chasis' (chassis/VIN, Section III), and 'Fecha de la Venta' (sale date, Section IV) — each disclosed here rather than silently upgraded to required. `Cédula / RNC` (seller and buyer) is modeled as a single unconstrained string field per the source's own combined label, since the same box accepts either an 11-digit individual cédula or a shorter company RNC and no per-format split or pattern is printed on the form itself, consistent with this registry's treatment of the same ambiguity in `do/mirex/passport-application`'s `identityDocumentNumber`."
