Problem with activating Authenticator from another country

I have a problem with the first login to a new 365 account, I select Authenticator as the MFA tool and Error code: 53003 appears. Is it possible that activation must take place from the country where my organization is located? I am currently in another country.

Microsoft 365 and Office | Install, redeem, activate | For business | Windows
Microsoft Security | Microsoft Authenticator

    53003 is BlockedByConditionalAccess

    You may need to reach out to the organization admins where they can troubleshoot further.
