You don't get AppleCare, but you do get 1 year warranty.

You shouldn't need it-- the sales receipt should be enough.

Warranty starts from date of sale, not date of manufacture.

I believe that unlike AppleCare, warranty protection is honored worldwide.
Applecare is honored only within the country where bought, so if you eventually
decide to get it, buy it in the country you are going to be in.
