Montenegro's flag is crimson with a gold border and the national coat of arms of Montenegro in the center. It was formally adopted on July 13, 2004, when Montenegro was still a constituent of the Serbian-Montenegrin State Union. On September 16, 2004, the flag's specific requirements were defined.

The flag was preserved as the national flag after Montenegro proclaimed independence on June 3, 2006, as specified by Article 4 of Montenegro's Constitution, which was ratified in 2007. The flag's crimson field and golden border signify the country's history and culture, while the coat of arms in the middle symbolizes the nation's sovereignty and identity.
