Our translation
We translate the whole letter: letterhead, text, references, and the Home Affairs official's stamp and signature. Names, ID number and dates are reproduced exactly as on the original, so they match your other documents. The town hall may also ask for a certificate of custom law (certificat de coutume), so check its list of required documents.
