Understanding Flag Emojis and Unicode
Learn how country flag emojis work and how to use them in code
What are Flag Emojis?
Country flag emojis are a special category of emoji defined in the Unicode Standard using pairs of Regional Indicator Symbols. Unlike most emojis which are single Unicode codepoints, each flag emoji is composed of two characters from the range U+1F1E6 (🇦) through U+1F1FF (🇿) — one for each letter of the corresponding ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. For example, the flag of France 🇫🇷 is encoded as U+1F1EB (Regional Indicator F) followed by U+1F1F7 (Regional Indicator R). The flag emoji reference displays all 250+ country and territory flags with their ISO codes, codepoints, and copy-ready formats.
How Our Flag Emoji Reference Works
- Search or Browse: Type any country name or ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code into the search box to filter the flag grid in real time. Use the region dropdown to browse flags by continent — Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe, Oceania, and more. The flag emoji reference updates instantly as you type.
- Click to Copy and View Details: Click any flag card to copy the emoji to your clipboard and open the detail panel. The detail panel shows the flag emoji, Unicode codepoints, HTML entity codes, and CSS content value — all with individual copy buttons. No data is sent to any server.
- Use in Your Project: Paste the copied emoji directly into text, or use the Unicode codepoints, HTML entities, or CSS content values in your code. The flag emoji reference provides all four formats so you can use the right one for your specific use case.
What the Flag Emoji Reference Includes
- Flag Emoji: The rendered flag emoji for each country and territory, derived from the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code using Regional Indicator Symbol pairs from the Unicode Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs block (U+1F1E6–U+1F1FF).
- ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 Code: The two-letter country code standardized by the International Organization for Standardization — the same codes used in internet country-code top-level domains (ccTLDs) and locale identifiers.
- Unicode Codepoints: The exact Unicode codepoints for both Regional Indicator Symbols that compose the flag, in U+XXXXXX format — useful for documentation and technical reference.
- HTML Entities and CSS Values:Ready-to-use HTML entity codes (🇫 format) and CSS content property values for embedding flag emojis in web pages and stylesheets without copy-pasting the emoji character directly.
Flag Emoji Rendering Notes
Flag emoji rendering depends on the operating system and font. On macOS, iOS, and Android, all country flags render as colorful flag images. On Windows, flag emoji support varies by application — some apps render flags correctly while others show the two Regional Indicator letters instead. In web browsers, flag emoji rendering depends on the system font and OS. The flag emoji reference uses your browser's native emoji rendering, so the flags you see in the grid are exactly how they will appear when you paste them into the same browser or operating system.

Each flag emoji is composed of two Regional Indicator Symbols from the Unicode range U+1F1E6 (🇦) through U+1F1FF (🇿), corresponding to the two letters of the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. For example, 🇺🇸 (US) is U+1F1FA + U+1F1F8. The flag emoji reference shows the exact codepoints for every flag.
Click any flag in the flag emoji reference to open the detail panel, then copy the HTML entity value (e.g. 🇺🇸 for 🇺🇸). Paste this directly into your HTML. Alternatively, copy the emoji character itself and paste it — modern browsers handle emoji characters in HTML correctly.
Windows does not natively support country flag emojis in most system fonts. On Windows, flag emojis may appear as two-letter Regional Indicator characters (e.g. 🇺🇸 might show as "US") instead of a flag image. Flag emojis render correctly on macOS, iOS, Android, and in most modern web browsers regardless of OS.
ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 is the international standard for two-letter country codes, maintained by the International Organization for Standardization. These codes are used in internet country-code top-level domains (ccTLDs like .uk, .de, .jp), locale identifiers (en-US, fr-FR), and as the basis for flag emoji encoding.
The flag emoji reference includes 250+ country and territory flags covering all UN member states, dependent territories, and special regions. This includes flags for territories like Puerto Rico (PR), Hong Kong (HK), and the European Union (EU) that are not independent countries but have defined ISO codes and flag emojis.
