certificate of nationality
This is from a certificate of nationality from Ivory Coast.
Is this document referring to the marriage? I see translations of this term as regards paternity. Is this necessarily created by the parents of the "person concerned"? Would it be called a Certificate of Acknowledgement?
Certifie sur le vu des pieces suivantes
1 Acte de marriage de l’interessé(e) (ou jugement en tenant lieu ou son ***acte de reconnaissance*** s’il y a lieu)
2 Acte de naissance (ou de mariage) de ses parents ou certificate de nationalité ivoirienne concernantl’un d’eux.

certificate of acknowledgement
The asker is (presumably) translating into US English. The term "deed" is only used in the US for a legal document conveying or transferring property, especially real estate. It is not used freely (as for example in the UK) as a term for other formal legal documents.
Real Estate Deeds Law and Legal Definition. A deed is the written document which transfers title (ownership) or an interest in real property to another person. ... A written document for the transfer of land or other real property from one person to another. A quitclaim deed conveys only such rights as the grantor has.

We were constantly and consistently reminded by Henry Hinds, late of this forum (RIP) about how Americans restrict the use of term "deed".
