Hello! I have a request for help with French translation! Might someone be able to help?

I recently ordered a reproduction of a book from the BNF - they sent me the following form: http://www.qfpost.com/download.do?get=7570c3b21044615a2eb0770db1d38108

I think I mostly understand it, except what are "le règlement au département de la reproduction" that I must send alongside the tear-off bit?

Gravel, I can't open that for some reason. Can you c&p?

"Partie détachable à retourner obligatoirement avec le règlement au département de la reproduction à l'adresse de facturation ci-dessus"

règlement being payment (settlement most literally).

ca me ferait plaisir, MW

i always have to remind myself that it doesn't mean "regulation" or "rule"

I remember from 'règlement de comptes' when they're talking about gang wars. It's kind of annoying when there's 'paiement' but maybe it's a legal thing.

Thanks guys! That makes perfect sense.
