French to English

Law (general)
This term appears in a document that is going to be used at an exhibition on the scientist "Yersin" (19th century). It is just one phrase (with the context following):
"- ACTE DE NATIONALITE française – coll. Musée Yersin
A 26 ans, Yersin demande à prendre la nationalité française qui avait été celle de ses ancêtres"
Does anyone know of an official or "agreed" translation for this term? Thanks very much.

Marion Sadoux
: an "act" in English refers to a Law, whereas the word "acte" in French generally refers to a mere certificate
