The flag of Vanuatu is composed of two equal horizontal bands of red and green, with a black isosceles triangle superimposed on the hoist side of the field. This triangle has its base on the hoist end, spans about two-fifth the width of the field and is enclosed on its sides by the arms of a thin black-edged yellow horizontally oriented Y-shaped band which extends along the boundary of the red and green bands to the fly end of the field. A yellow boar's tusk encircling two yellow crossed namele leaves is centered in the triangle.
