Home > Flag of Montenegro

The flag of Montenegro was changed on July 12th 2004 by the Parliament of Montenegro into a red banner bearing the coat of arms adopted in 1993. While it has been illustrated with a yellow border, in fact the flag -- although usually trimmed with gold fringe -- has no border to its red field.

The coat of arms derives from those of King Nikola. The Cyrillic initials НI (i.e. NI) of King Nikola I, however, are left out.

1 Previous flags

The flag was identical to the flag of Serbia until 1993, when the blue was changed to a lighter hue and the ratio to 1:3 instead of 1:2.

Until 1992, when Montenegro was part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the flag had a red star in centre.

Old flags of Montenegro include the red-blue-white tricolour and the royal eagle in the middle.
