{{YouTube|id=wO9DUWy8Pzw}}
'''Logo:''' Same as the [[CBS Studios|CBS Television Studios]] logo, which also debuted in 2009 until 2020, except the eye and "'''CBS'''" are smaller, "'''CBS'''" is bolder, and the words "TELEVISION STUDIOS" are replaced by the stacked words "STUDIOS INTERNATIONAL".
'''Variant:''' The logo is available in the standard 4:3 and widescreen 16:9 formats.
'''Technique:''' Same as the CBS Television Studios logo.
'''Music/Sounds:'''  The same theme as the CBS Television Studios logo.
'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''
* Sometimes, the ending theme of the show plays instead. This happens on GREAT! TV UK airings of ''Touched by an Angel''.
* There's also a silent version.
* On some international prints of 2010s episodes ''America's Next Top Model'' and the DVD release of ''Survivor: Samoa'', there's a speedup/triple pitch version of the theme.
'''Availability:''' No longer current, but still common internationally.
* It's seen on the DVD release of ''Survivor: Nicaragua'' and ''Survivor: Samoa,'' international adaptations of ''America's Next Top Model'', among other series.
* This is also seen on newer international airings of CBS-owned shows like ''Cheers'' and ''Everybody Loves Raymond''.
* The logo can also be seen on Netflix prints and H&I airings of season 3 episodes of ''Star Trek: The Next Generation''.
* This logo has also been spotted on later episodes (mainly the "updated" prints of season 7) of ''Diagnosis: Murder'' on Me-TV, after the 1999 Viacom "ViaBot" logo, but not on older episodes with the 1990 or 1998 logos or even S2 episodes which have the 1990 and 1995 Paramount logos after the Viacom logo.
* It also appeared at the end of an April 9, 2023 UK airing of the 2009 adaption of ''Angel and the Bad Man'' on LEGEND as well.
* When CBS Studios International changed its name to ViacomCBS Global Distribution Group, the logo was mostly retired, but ''Indonesia's Next Top Model'' continues to use this logo until Season 3.

'''Logo:''' We see the CBS Eyemark rotating and placing itself beside the following words on a black background with a {{color|deepskyblue|blue}} spotlight in the middle:
<center>{{color
|deepskyblue|{{Huge|'''CBS'''}}</br>{{Big|STUDIOS}}</br>{{Small|INTERNATIONAL}}}}</center>
When the Eyemark settles, a flash occurs and several sparks fly out from it. The Eyemark then flies close to the screen and then to the left, transitioning to black.
'''Technique:''' CGI animation.
'''Music/Sounds:''' The last few seconds of the reel, followed by a whoosh from the Eyemark.
'''Availability:''' Seen at the end of a CBS sizzle reel.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|darkblue|dark blue}} background, the text "'''{{color|#0a498c|V}}{{color|#5effbc|I}}{{color|#0a498c|A}}{{color|#5effbc|C}}{{color|#0a498c|O}}{{color|#5effbc|M}}{{color|#0a498c|C}}{{color|#5effbc|B}}{{color|#0a498c|S}}'''" wipes in letter-by-letter, as a {{color|#0a498c|slightly brighter blue}} bar wipes in below it. Then a tri-colored line in 3 shades of {{color
|blue|blue}} moves from the left side of the screen to the right, making "'''{{color|#0080FF|VIACOM}}'''" a {{color|#0080FF|brighter blue}} color and "'''CBS'''" white. The bar below the "'''{{color|#0080FF|VIACOM}}CBS'''" wordmark takes the same color as the "'''{{color|#0080FF|VIACOM}}'''" text, with scrolling {{color|aquamarine|teal green}} and {{color|#0a498c|darker blue}} squares on its far left side, and "Global Distribution Group" appears on it. The logo zooms in and gets slightly closer to the screen.
'''Later Variant:''' A circle appears in the center of the screen. It then moves slightly to the right and morphs into a "'''C'''" with the rest of the letters in "'''{{color|#0080FF|VIACOM}}CBS'''" emerging from it. Then, the {{color|#0080FF|blue}} line wipes in from the middle of the screen while "Global Distribution Group" appears on it, similar to the Microsoft PowerPoint "Peek In" effect.
'''Technique:''' 2D animation.
'''Music/Sounds:''' None for the earlier variant.
'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' For the later variant, 2 drum beats are heard when the circle appears, followed by 4 synth notes when the ViacomCBS logo forms.
'''Availability:''' Rare, due to its short lifespan.
* Seen on programmes internationally distributed by the company, such as ''A Million Little Things''.
* It is also seen on H&I's airings of ''Walker, Texas Ranger''.
* Strangely, this logo also plasters either the 1990 or 1995 Paramount Television logos on the ''Frasier'' complete series Blu-ray set, which is distributed by [[Paramount Home Entertainment]] (under the [[CBS Home Entertainment]] banner).
