| 2304 : Object status prohibits operation | The domain is not in a state at the current registrar that will allow the domain to be transferred. Either it is already being transferred or its status is blocking the transfer. You will need to see with the current provided to unblock |

| 2306 : Parameter value policy error… | The reason is frequently given in the rest of the error message. It is frequently a parameter that is missing for one of the contacts provided or a special code that needs to be given to Gandi to unblock it (ex. for special reserved .FR domains) |

| 2308 : Data management policy violation (domain [XXX] has invalid status (serverTransferprohibited)) | The domain is not in a status at the current provider that will allow transfer. You will need to contact your current provider to unblock the domain. |

| 2400 : Command failed (admin contact is not located in a French territory) | The administrative contact is not in France. |
| Transfer Prohibited from Whois Extract : status: CLIENT-TRANSFER-PROHIBITED | The domain name's status at the current provider prohibits transfer. You will need to contact your current provider in order to unblock the domain. |
| Transfer has not been requested at registrar | This error concerns extensions for which you must contact your current provider in order to "push" the domain name to Gandi's tag, which is GANDI |
| Transfer Refused by Registrar | Please contact your current registrar and ask them to allow the transfer to go through. |
| Generic error 2014 | If you have this for a .be domain name (owner change or for a trade) it is because the domain has the transfer protection enabled. Disable it and relaunch the transfer. |
| Max waiting duration for owner responses (6 days) reached | Two separate authorization requests are sent via email for a given transfer; this message means that one or both were not confirmed within six days. Relaunch the transfer from your "Orders in Progress" page and try again (check your spam folder if you don't receive both emails). |
