Hello Ricky!
The agent is right! Starting from October 8, 2008 it is required to provide the
notarized translation of the university diploma to obtain work permit. Without
this document FMS will simply deny to accept the documents.
Requirement to give provide notarized translation of the university diploma, as
well as many other new requirements, is aftereffect of financial crisis and
caused by it more severe migration policy of Government. It is considered that
on positions, that do not need special education any Russian can work, and
involving foreigners without education is inexpedient.
I know agency that prepares notarized translation of the university diploma
WITHOUT the original (only on a copy sent on e-mail). It considerably
simplifies a situation for many foreign workers.
If you are interested, please, address.

Subject: Expat List Work permit requires notarized translation of university
diploma?
Hi everybody,
hope you can help me with this:
I have been in Moscow for 1.5 years, having a work permit and work visa, all
done via a Russian agent and my company. My renewal comes up in Oct, so my
company and I are starting to prepare for the process.
Now the agency told that "Starting from October 8, 2008 it is required to
provide the notarized translation of the university diploma to obtain
individual work permit for foreign employee".
Let's face it, one doesn't need to have to have a university degree for all
sorts of jobs in order to be successful, or to do the job necessary. And even
if I do, the certificate would be nicely packed somewhere in my home country
and certainly not available here in Moscow.
Can anybody comment on this? Is it true? Why would that be? Does that mean,
from Oct 2008 on, only graduates are allowed to work in Russia? This just
sounds odd to me.
Comments appreciated.
Cheers
Ricky
