Cannot register with Apple Store

[marybburke]

i bought a iphone 3G recently and I cannot seem to register it with apple store. I live in Dubai, UAE and every time i try to register it, it asks for a USA address and will not let me do anything unless i input an USA address. Can i only register it if bought and live in the states??
please help
