able to own an .it domain being from the usa?

[pjK]

i recently was able to secure a domain .it through eurodns. They are currently the registrant because .it domains require a Italian agent. I am using my domain for business now and it is worth a lot of money, I do not trust eurodns being the full owner of it. Is there a better way to secure ownership? eurodns says they will delete a domain if they feel like it , which is why i dont exactly trust them

You need to be EU citizen or have an EU company to register .it domains.

Agree.
If you live in the Usa is not possible reg an .it domain.

Register a UK company for example. I paid £80 a few years back but this is just for the paperwork.
You need to add a few $$$ for maintenance, office address etc.

This is correct but make sure your VAT is in order as the Italian registry will sometimes do checks for correct VAT's and whether a legitimate company does indeed exist.
