   Hi, Mathieu, Benoit.

Something you probabely forgot, is the entry 'Type' :

   // Entries whose type is 1 are mandatory, with a mandatory value
    // Entries whose type is 1c are mandatory-inside-a-Sequence,    
   //                          with a mandatory value
   // Entries whose type is 2 are mandatory, with an optional value     
// Entries whose type is 2c are mandatory-inside-a-Sequence,
   //                          with an optional value
   // Entries whose type is 3 are optional


It's *not* in the Dicom Dictionary;
For a  given Tag, it may change, depending on the Modality and/or 
whether it's or not embedded inside a Sequence.
(Have a look at the various conformance statements ...)


Still wishing to check it at reading time?

;-)
