This is an extract from a company’s bylaws, so “célibataires et mariées” must have a special meaning in this context.. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
(Only the company’s name, address and legal status are indicated at the beginning of the document).

: A maiden name is the same as an unmarried name.//The original name, where there had been a legal name change not because of marraige, would be the the "birth name" or "name at birth".

Not if one of the parties is a male or if the unmarried name is different from the maiden name (after a change?)

birth and vital statistics status are as indicated...
Could possibly be referring to the details of the parties involved (such as place and date of birth, and whether they are single or married). One idea might be to use an option as above, and flag it to the client as it is a bit strange.

It seems very strange to me for an official document to refer to a legal entity as being "born" or "unmarried."
