Dot IT Domain Name Registrations

Introduced in 1987, Italy’s .IT country-code domain extension is quite popular both within the country and in the English-speaking world. The reason is that the domain is a pronoun, which can be used for building imaginative and interesting domain names – write.it, youcanmake.it and so on. This is a way to create an easy-to-learn domain name, so that it will be easier for your visitors to return to your website or to give it with colleagues and acquaintances. The extension can also be used for a website, which is linked to the information technology sector because IT is an abbreviation, which is accepted around the world.

Taking into consideration that dot IT domains are not offered directly by IT-NIC, the Registry organization that controls this top-level extension, such a domain can be booked through a 3rd-party service provider, such as ours. We will manage the registration process for you and take care of submitting your application to the Registry organization. You can get a .IT domain for 1 year at a time, and the domains are transferable, so you can move your existing domain over to us and we will renew it when the transfer has been completed. The sole restriction is that the person reserving such a domain is required to be situated in a country, which is a member of the EU.

As there are existing Second-Level Domains that include names of different areas and localities in Italy reserved for local third-level registrations, new names that include geographical areas of any kind are not permitted on any level to avoid any future confusion. We do not offer such third-level domains, though, as they can be registered only by locals.
