Transfer Existing domain to Azure with billing

I already have a domain with a non-azure domain provider (arvixe.com to be specific). I want to completely get rid of my current registrar and move to Azure fully including hosting and billing of my domain. I cannot find a way to do this. There are few powershell scripts around but none is working in my case.

Note that transfer of domains may be restricted for 60 days after registration and you must make sure that the domain is not locked at the original registrar.

In this this MSDN post dated March 15, 2018 a Microsoft moderator remarked that transfer is only supported for .com, .org, and .net top-level domains.

See the answer by Omar JG/SadiqhAhmed-MSFT:

Scope: ONLY support Domain transfer for .com, org,.net

It is now possible to use PowerShell to transfer a domain purchased outside of Azure to Azure. Here's the PowerShell script:

$ResourceName = "<domain>" #user's domain (constoso.com)
$PropertiesObject = @{
    'Consent' = @{
        'AgreementKeys' = @("DNPA","DNTA");
        'AgreedBy' = '<ip_address>'; #user's IP address (192.168.1.1)
        'AgreedAt' = '<time>'; #roughly the current time (2017-13-05T12:25:30.6850404Z)
    };
    'authCode' = '<auth_code>'; #code obtained from their current provider in order to transfer out the domain
    'Privacy' = 'true';
    'autoRenew' = 'true';
}

I have not found any recent indication that the scope of this has yet expanded.
