Very similar to this older post:
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Allow-issue-movement-to-a-particular-step-only/qaq-p/388188
Basically, when we move an existing issue into a specific project, we want to ensure the issue created in the new project is always created as a specific status.
Alternately, setting the dropdown as a specific default would be sufficient.
The link above is ~5 years old at this point - any new developments on this topic?
The answer is that you can not do it. You can not restrict available statuses, when you move issues.
Unfortunate - but thanks for the answer
