  "title": "South Korea Vehicle Ownership Transfer Registration (자동차 이전등록신청서)",
  "description": "Register the transfer of a South Korean vehicle's ownership after a sale, gift, court-commissioned act (e.g. judgment-based transfer or authority-ordered auction), or inheritance, using the form gazetted under the Motor Vehicle Management Act (자동차관리법) as [별지 제14호서식] '이전등록 신청서' (Attached Form No. 14, Transfer Registration Application) of the Enforcement Rule on Motor Vehicle Registration (자동차등록규칙). The transferee (new owner) is ordinarily the applicant, though the transferor may apply instead if the transferee fails to do so within the statutory deadline, and a registered used-car dealer may file on the parties' behalf. Filed either in person at the local city/county/district vehicle registration office, or online through the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's 자동차민원 대국민포털 ('Car365', car365.go.kr) — the online channel requires a Korean digital certificate, mobile-carrier, or financial-certificate authentication login to actually submit and is unavailable for gift, inheritance, co-ownership, or tax-exemption cases (in-person filing only); this document models the application form's own data fields and its transaction-type-conditional attachment rules, not that login-gated online submission flow, and does not submit anything. It does not model the separate 자동차변경등록신청서 (change-of-particulars registration, a distinct sibling form for changes short of an ownership transfer), the separate first-time/new registration form, or the downstream acquisition-tax assessment and licence-plate reissuance that follow a successful transfer registration at the local tax office. GovSchema is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Government of the Republic of Korea, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, or Car365.",

    "notes": "Adds South Korea's first Vehicle Registration/DMV-vertical schema. Sourced directly from law.go.kr's own form-download endpoint (a real, directly-downloadable two-page PDF with a genuine text layer, extracted with pdfjs-dist — no login, CAPTCHA, or OCR needed), cross-checked against the Car365 portal's own guidance page, the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's civil-service portal (gov.kr) service listing for this same process, and three city/district registration-office public service pages (Seongnam, Gangnam-gu, Jeonju) that describe the same document requirements in plainer administrative language. The live Car365 online submission wizard itself requires a Korean digital-certificate/mobile/financial-certificate login and was not walked screen-by-screen. Independent review-gate re-verification (GOV-1403) re-fetched all three secondary sources directly: 매각결정서/확정판결등본's registrationReason mapping to 촉탁 (courtCommission) checked out and was further corroborated by car365's and Gangnam-gu's own '이전등록촉탁서' terminology in their court/auction-sale document categories; the original vehicleRegistrationCertificate=required judgment call did not check out — none of the three secondary sources actually establish it as unconditionally required (Seongnam explicitly marks it '미제출 가능'/submission optional; car365 requires it only when the plate number itself is changing; gov.kr and Gangnam-gu don't list it at all) — corrected to required:false pre-merge.
