I remember getting the same thing with all the Harry Potter discs from CD
Wow. I ordered them all in one go last February, again no BBFC certs and
coded for both R2 & R5. According to http://tinyurl.com/oiqy Region 5 covers
"Russia, Eastern Europe, India, most of Africa, North Korea, Mongolia".
Quite where in the world would require dual coding for R2 & R5 with Arabic
as an alternative language and all packaging in English is rather puzzling.
Disc is absolutely fine though, plus I actually prefer that cover to the
standard UK release.
