# Force Transfer

> Transfer tokens between addresses without holder approval

Executes a forced transfer of tokens from one address to another, bypassing the standard transfer approval flow. This is a regulatory action typically used for court-ordered transfers, error corrections, or compliance enforcement. Requires the `CONTROLLER` role.

## Path Parameters

<ParamField path="tokenAddress" type="string" required>
  Address of the stock token contract.
</ParamField>

## Request Body

<ParamField body="from" type="string" required>
  Ethereum address to transfer tokens from.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="to" type="string" required>
  Ethereum address to transfer tokens to.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="amount" type="string" required>
  Number of tokens to transfer. Must be greater than zero.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="reason" type="string">
  Reason for the forced transfer, stored in the event log for audit purposes.
</ParamField>

## Response Fields

<ResponseField name="data" type="object">
  <Expandable>
    <ResponseField name="success" type="boolean">Calldata was built successfully.</ResponseField>

    <ResponseField name="txData" type="object">
      The unsigned transaction. `to` is the token contract, `data` is the encoded `forceTransfer` call, and `value` is always `"0"`.
    </ResponseField>
  </Expandable>
</ResponseField>

<Note>
  Nothing is submitted on your behalf. Sign `txData` with a wallet holding the required role on the token and broadcast it yourself.
