Salut!

This term appears on a divorce certificate from Dakar.

Some possible translations are: 'affidavit' and 'sworn statement'. I would appreciate some advice about the best term to use in the context.

Yes, we've had this several times before. Asker: please check the glossary before posting questions.
writeaway Mar 23, 2012:
the fact it is issued by a huisser helps make the meaning relatively clear. should already be in the glossary.

neutral writeaway : yup, just look it up. simple as that, even if this is not a very good translation. Bailiffs generally serve documents, they don't make them.

During a divorce, an affidavit is often required. An affidavit is simply a sworn statement.
