Countries with Blue & Yellow Flags 2026

Two equal horizontal bands of blue (top) and yellow. The colours are drawn from the coat of arms of the medieval Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia and have represented Ukrainian national identity since the 19th century. The blue represents the sky; the yellow represents the wheat fields that cover the country. Adopted in its current form on 28 January 1992, following independence from the Soviet Union.

Blue field bearing a gold (yellow) Nordic cross — the vertical bar is offset toward the hoist. The cross design is shared with the other Nordic nations, though Sweden's flag is the only one using exclusively blue and gold with no other colour. The Swedish flag's design has been in use since at least the 16th century and was formalised in 1906.

Light sky-blue field bearing a gold sun with 32 rays in the upper-fly area, beneath which soars a golden steppe eagle. A vertical band of traditional Kazakh ornamental pattern (the koshkar-muiz or 'ram's horns' motif) runs along the hoist side — also rendered in gold. The flag contains only light blue and gold, with no other colours anywhere.

Light blue field bearing a large golden-yellow disc positioned slightly toward the hoist to appear optically centred when the flag is flying — the same visual correction used in Japan's flag. The blue represents the ocean surrounding the islands; the golden disc represents the full moon, which is a symbol of local celebration, harvest, and community gathering in Palauan culture. Adopted in 1981.
