Which country are you located? If you buy from Sony Mobile there wasn't any carrier and its Unlock. So, no branding at all. It just came with Sony preloaded software.
Otherwise, you could get it here and shipped to you.

Hi, Italy here. The Italians Carrier wil brand devices with the StartUp logo and some bookmarks.

Same issue for me.
I've ordered an Z1 Compact and I got a TIM branded device, now I need to understand if I should ask for a replacement or I can debrand without any risk.

You could flash an unbranded firmware to get rid of any software branding. Just make sure your device doesn't have a SIM lock or similar: dial *#*#7378423#*#* (*#*#service#*#*), then go to Service info, SIM lock.
Read (!! not just browse) the Resource Thread for further instructions.

How can i know my arc s is international or from a operator?

Hi, I'm using a sony arc s, i bought it from amazon , how can I know it is an international (sim free) version or a lock version (from a operator)?
If it is simlock version, how can i know which operator it belongs to?
I need to know that because I can know when my phone can get update
Thank you

I can find the page on amazon to help you, but only to be sure - can you post a link to page where you found the phone?
If your phone have
T-mobile startup - is branded to t-mobile
Vip startup - is branded to VIP
Also with sounds, if you have sounds from some network provider it is branded to them.
if your phone have only SE STARTUP - is unlocked and sim free (non branded)
----------
Also you can debrand your phone with flashing it with GENERIC WORLD files
T-Mobile hasn't a different bootanimation, just look for operator specific apps.

It's an Xperia S right? Did you buy it in the UK? What carrier is it locked to? Call that carrier and ask for the unlock code if you're the one who bought it from them. If you aren't, well good luck.
Flashing a global firmware won't do you any good, it'll just debrand the phone but that's it.

If its an AT&T variant then the answer is no you cant install a custom rom

Did you read my response in the other Note 4 forum?
No root, no custom roms, but CAN Sim unlock.
Edit: that wasnt supposed to sound so harsh. I was just asking if you read it....

This will sound stupid but do yourself a favor and sell it on ebay while used ones are still fetching good money and then buy an international korean model, no sim lock plus 6gb ram. I almost bought the tmobile one til i found out about the korean version.
