'''Logo:''' We see the text "(DISTRIBUTED BY) COLUMBIA TRISTAR FILMS [country]" fading in first, then we see a Columbia-like cloud background (which looks like the background from the 1993 TriStar Pictures logo, but it has a mirror effect), with the 1992 print logos of Columbia Pictures and TriStar Pictures fading in. The logo and text would fade-out like the 1992 [[CPT]] logo.

*A later variant features the cloud background from the 1993 Columbia Pictures logo. The background zooms-out and we later see the 1992 print logos of both Columbia Pictures and TriStar Pictures fading-in with the text "DISTRIBUTED BY COLUMBIA TRISTAR FILM DISTRIBUTORS INTERNATIONAL, INC." below the boxes, this was seen on English-language prints of Columbia TriStar titles.

*On some Italian films, the words "FILMS ITALIA" replace "FILM DISTRIBUTORS INTERNATIONAL, INC" while the ''COLUMBIA TRISTAR'' text still remains, although it is a different font below the boxes with the same logo and almost similar to the 1988-93 logo.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Silent, or the music from any given soundtrack. On the DVD and a Spanish dub of ''Escape from Absolom'' (aka ''No Escape'' in the US and UK), the [[Savoy Pictures]] theme plays at the end of the logo.

'''Availability:''' Ultra rare. Was seen on export theatrical prints of films and various foreign productions produced or released by Columbia Pictures and TriStar Pictures, but most now either use U.S. domestic prints, or have removed or plastered this over. The in-credit logo can be found on ''Guerra de Canudos''. On the Australian DVD & Blu-ray of ''Escape from Absolom'', the logo has the widescreen version with its original ratio aspect 2.35:1 (which is the different than the Region 2 and Region 4 DVDs with 1.78:1, which has the Savoy Pictures logo). Also seen on a trailer for ''The Indian in the Cupboard'' and foreign prints of ''Street Fighter''. It was spotted on ''Cronica de un desayuno (A Breakfast Chronicle;'' 2000'')''. It is still retained on the Mexican VHS of ''The Swan Princess''.
