Public domain This image of a postage stamp from United Arab Emirates is in the public domain both in United Arab Emirates and in other countries adhering to international copyright treaties, because, though the 2002 copyright law of the United Arab Emirates states that such works as stamps are protected for 50 years starting from 1 January of the publication year, the 1992 copyright law (DOC) gave a 25 years copyright protection (starting from the publication date). Therefore all UAE postage stamps printed before 1977 are in public domain.

(Quotation: "In 1963, Great Britain ceded responsibility for the Trucial States' postal system.", So, all stamps of the so-called "Trucial States" were printed either in England or in Austria (the latter mainly Emirate Ajman). All other issues not listed in the catalogues and/or with lesser print quality (and mostly postmarked as CTO) are so-called "dunes issues" and as such seen as pure maculation created with the aim of financial fraud. The Emirate Sharjah was one of these "Trucial States".)
