We advise aircraft owners, buyers, sellers, lessors, financiers, operators, aviation service providers, airport businesses and investors on Italian aircraft transactions, leasing, registration, regulatory compliance, operating contracts and disputes.
Discuss an Italian aviation matterAn aviation transaction or operation in Italy connects title, registration, airworthiness records, financing, insurance, tax, customs, operational control, maintenance, crew, airport access and regulatory approvals. We coordinate these workstreams around the aircraft, commercial model and timetable so that legal documentation supports delivery, operation and enforcement.
We draft and negotiate aircraft sale, purchase, operating lease, finance lease, loan and security documentation. Advice can cover title and lien searches, technical-record conditions, deposits, delivery, acceptance, registration, deregistration, insurance, tax coordination, closing and cross-border security interests.
We support operators and service providers on Italian Civil Aviation Authority and EASA-facing matters, operating structures, licences, approvals, aircraft management, charter, maintenance, repair, crew, airport access, ground handling and allocation of operational control.
We advise on lease defaults, unpaid amounts, maintenance and redelivery disputes, damage, service failures, insurance interfaces, termination, repossession and deregistration. We preserve contractual remedies and coordinate negotiation, arbitration, litigation and cross-border enforcement.
We identify the aircraft, beneficial owner, seller, buyer, lessor, financier, operator, registry, intended use, operating base, delivery location and transaction timetable.
We review title, liens, registry status, ownership chain, technical records, maintenance position, airworthiness, existing contracts, insurance, sanctions, tax and customs issues with the relevant specialists.
We align price, rent, security, conditions precedent, delivery, acceptance, maintenance reserves, return conditions, operational control, liability, insurance, default, termination and dispute provisions.
We coordinate signing, funds flow, registration or deregistration, security filings, physical handover and post-closing matters, then support operating, maintenance, airport and service agreements.
The scope normally includes title and ownership history, registry status, liens and security interests, technical records, maintenance and airworthiness position, existing leases or management agreements, insurance, tax and customs status, sanctions screening, delivery conditions and the process for registration or export.
Eligibility depends on the proposed owner, operator, corporate structure and applicable Italian and EU requirements. The ownership and operating model should be reviewed before signing so that registration, operational control and delivery conditions are compatible.
A foreign governing law may be chosen in many transactions, but Italian mandatory rules can still affect registration, security interests, insolvency, enforcement, repossession, tax, customs and operation. Those local-law consequences should be addressed in the transaction documents.

Responsibility for flight decisions, crew, maintenance and operational oversight affects regulatory compliance, safety and liability. Management, charter, lease and service agreements should identify which party exercises operational control and which obligations remain with the owner or operator.

Share the aircraft, parties, transaction documents, registry and intended operation. We will identify the Italian aviation-law, ENAC, registration, contractual and enforcement issues that should be resolved before the next deadline.
