  "title": "Sri Lanka — Application for a Revenue Licence for a Motor Vehicle (CMT 11 / M.T.A. 11)",
  "description": "The Department of Motor Traffic's (DMT) \"Application for a Revenue Licence for a Motor Vehicle\" under Section 30(1) of the Motor Traffic Act, printed form CMT 11 (also stamped M.T.A. 11), opening Sri Lanka's DMV vertical (3 of 6), following Passport (GOV-2716, 47th jurisdiction) and National ID & Civic Documents (GOV-2753). A Revenue Licence is Sri Lanka's annual vehicle-tax disc: every registered motor vehicle's owner must hold a current licence to lawfully use the vehicle on a public road, renewed (or, for a newly registered vehicle, first obtained) through this same trilingual (Sinhala/Tamil/English) form. Published directly by DMT (dmt.gov.lk) as a static, unauthenticated download, fetched directly (HTTP 200, application/pdf, 100,140 bytes, sha256: c24259f9f021b0122bcdcf22138275bee2de9aa0d651cca8fb4e633b284618c4). This is a flat, non-AcroForm 2-page form (confirmed via pdfjs-dist@3: zero Widget annotations, zero `/AcroForm` on either page) with a genuine positioned text layer (not a scanned image), extracted via pdfjs-dist's text-content API and cross-checked by rendering both pages to PNG via pdfjs-dist + node-canvas. Page 1 is the applicant-facing application; page 2 is entirely a Sinhala/Tamil \"for use in CMT's office / Kachcheri\" block (licence fee, additional fine, and seven numbered office-verification items — route permit, insurance certificate, fitness certificate, private-hire-car permit, route/seasonal bus-service permits — each completed by the issuing clerk, not the applicant) and is excluded here as office-intake content, consistent with this registry's established convention for the same class of content (e.g. rs/mup's deciding-authority items, rs/mfa's consular-only column). This v1.0.0 models 19 applicant-facing fields[] from page 1 plus 6 documents[] entries drawn from the Northern Provincial Council's own published \"Documents required for Revenue Licence\" list (np.gov.lk/documents-for-revenue-licence/, updated 29 Nov 2024) — Sri Lanka's nine Provincial Councils, not DMT itself, are the licence-issuing authorities under the 13th Amendment, so the supporting-document list is sourced from a provincial licensing authority rather than DMT's own downloads page, which lists only the form. GovSchema is an independent, non-profit standards body and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Government of Sri Lanka, the Department of Motor Traffic, or any Provincial Council.",

Independently fetched the source from scratch: HTTP 200, application/pdf, 100,140 bytes, sha256 c24259f9f021b0122bcdcf22138275bee2de9aa0d651cca8fb4e633b284618c4, re-fetched a second time byte-for-byte identical (also confirmed via a fresh curl -I: last-modified Mon, 03 Feb 2025, so a recent upload of the currently-linked edition, not a stale mirror). Confirmed via pdfjs-dist@3 (legacy build): 2 pages, zero Widget annotations, zero getFieldObjects() entries on either page. Extracted the full x/y-positioned text layer for both pages and rendered each to PNG via pdfjs-dist + node-canvas, confirming page 1 is the applicant-facing form and page 2 is entirely office-use content in Sinhala/Tamil. Cross-checked the documents[] list directly against np.gov.lk/documents-for-revenue-licence/ (fetched independently, HTTP 200, page states 'updated on 29 Nov 2024'), matching a subagent's own independent citation of the same page verbatim.
