    How to identify it

    Blue, yellow and red vertical bands with a coat of arms on the yellow showing an eagle holding a cross, with an aurochs head on its shield. Romania is the same tricolour with no arms.

    Design and construction

    Adoption and legal status
    Parliament adopted the blue-yellow-red tricolour with arms on 27 April 1990.

    History of the design

    The central eagle carries a shield with an aurochs head, preventing confusion with Romania’s plain tricolour.
