Your domain transfer cannot be completed unless you unlock the domain, remove privacy, set up a valid administrative email, and apply the correct authorization code (for .com, .net, .org, .biz, .us, .name, .tv, or .info domains).
NOTE: You can also use an authorization code to transfer .eu domains. For more information, see Transferring .EU Domains.
