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.
