There is no freedom of panorama in the UAE, and the building itself appears to be original enough that it passes the originality threshold, thereby making it a copyvio. russavia (talk) 20:39, 7 November 2011 (UTC)reply

Comment: The reason why it was on the commons was because of discussions that determined that the building doesn't pass the threshold of originality:

Still delete Discussions on enwp don't necessarily apply here. Particularly when flawed reasoning applies. File:UAE Embassy Moscow.jpg is a Brezhnev-era building of industrial design, and are a dime a dozen in Russia -- there is no originality. This modern building has some degree of originality in my eye. Brezhnev-era buildings in Russia can't be compared to modern buildings in the UAE. russavia (talk) 16:39, 8 November 2011 (UTC)reply
