Turks and Caicos Inseln

The flag of the Turks and Caicos Islands is a British Blue Ensign with the Union Jack in the canton and the territory's coat of arms on the fly. The shield depicts a conch shell, a spiny lobster and a Turk's head cactus, representing the islands' marine life, natural heritage and identity as a British Overseas Territory.

The current flag was adopted on September 28, 1968, and updated with the modern coat of arms after constitutional changes. It symbolizes the islands' constitutional relationship with the United Kingdom and their distinctive Caribbean heritage.
