Rég.
I'm translating several birth certificates from Djibouti. On each one there's a part that says "Rég." (followed by a number) in a text box on the left-hand side, alongside "Série", "Année", and "Numéro", as you can see here: https://www.djiboutiembassy.com.tr/p/application-for-birth-c...
It would make sense for it to mean "Registre" BUT there's an accent on the "e". I don't think it's "région" as the certificates appear to be from the same place and the numbers are different.
Or could it be that they've added the accent because you can't really pronounce "reg" on its own (because of the schwa sound) if you read it out loud? If that's even a thing?

Même si l'abréviation en question contient un accent, "registre" reste le plus probable.

: I was just looking at the same link - I think you're right as all these items appear in the same section of the certificate

@ ph-b & Caroline. I hadn't thought of that, but will definitely bear it in mind for future projects. Unfortunately, the deadline was a bit tight on this one and I'd already delivered by the time you posted.
