clientTransferProhibited — an EPP client status set by the registrar that blocks transfer of the domain to another registrar until the lock is removed.
Several EPP statuses can appear at the same time and describe restrictions applied by the registrar or registry. A client status is normally controlled by the registrar, while only the registry can change a server status; the reason behind a lock matters more than the code alone.
clientTransferProhibited — an EPP client status set by the registrar that blocks transfer of the domain to another registrar until the lock is removed.
Statuses prefixed with client are set by the registrar; statuses prefixed with server are set by the TLD registry. Server restrictions take precedence and normally require the registrar to investigate the underlying cause.
Review the domain’s RDAP or WHOIS output and the registrar control panel. Ask the registrar why an operation is blocked; a registrant cannot remove a server status directly.
