These lots have been imported from outside the EU for sale using a Temporary Import regime. Import VAT is payable (at 5%) on the Hammer price.

When a buyer of such a lot has registered an EU address but wishes to export the lot or complete the import into another EU country, he must advise Christie's immediately after the auction.
Please note that this lot should be marked with a STAR symbol in the printed catalogue instead of the OMEGA symbol that is printed in the catalogue, and as such import VAT is payable (at 5%) on the Hammer price, in addition to the usual 20% VAT on the Buyer’s Premium.
