Issuing authority of passport is only written in Cyrillic script. How to fill it into a Schengen visa application?










27














I am helping a Russian national fill out an application for a Norwegian Schengen visa (Type C).



The form asks for "Issuing authority". In the applicant's passport, this is only given in Cyrillic, (as ФМС 25011). I believe this refers to the Russian Federal Migration Service. However, the only thing that is written in the passport is "ФМС 25011".



The application form states:




You can only use Latin letters, numbers and special characters.




What should I write in the application form for this field?

          I see no reason why you should depart from general transliteration table of Russian.

          According to all standards, С is transliterated into S, so it will be



          FMS 25011


          And also space between organ name (FMS) and organ branch number (25011) should be preserved.
