Certains pays interdisent ou restreignent l'achat et/ou l'importation de biens d'origine iranienne. Les enchérisseurs doivent se familiariser avec les lois ou les restrictions d'expédition qui s'appliquent à eux avant d'enchérir sur ces lots.

Christie's dispose d'une licence générale de l'OFAC qui, sous réserve du respect de certaines conditions, permettrait à un acheteur d'importer ce type de lot aux États-Unis. Si vous avez l'intention d'utiliser la licence de Christie's, veuillez nous contacter pour obtenir de plus amples informations avant d'enchérir.

If you intend to use Christie’s licence, please contact us for further information before you bid.
