This is a comprehensive list of flags used in Albania.
State flags
Flag | Description |
---|---|
Flag of the Provisional Government (1912–1914) The weekly Albanian language newspaper Zër' i Popullit (Template:Lang-sq), based in New York City, published on the cover page of its 7th issue, dated 17 December 1912, a color illustration of the Albanian flag. It shows a striking resemblance to a similar illustration found on the cover page of the 16th issue of the 2nd annual edition of Perlindja e Shqipëniës newspaper, the official publication of the newly formed Albanian State, dated 7 March 1914.[1] Later evidence of the consistently unchanged design of the double-headed eagle is substantiated by newspaper Dielli in its 21st annual edition published on November 29, 1929 and titled: 1467===FLAMURI YNE===1912; with the descriptive subtitle: Sign of love for the Fatherland and the Symbol of Freedom.[2] | |
Flag of the self-proclaimed Republic of Central Albania (1913–1914) In the archives of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Fund Section R–130365), scholar Marenglen Kasmi encountered a paper envelope which contained a letter signed by Essad Pasha Toptani and addressed by the Austro-Hungarian royal imperial embassy in Berlin to the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs, dated 7 May 1915. In it, a piece of cloth roughly 20 by 30 cm in length, in light red color with a white star polygon at the lower right corner is presented as the "national flag" with Essad Pasha identifying himself as interim president and general supreme commander. What stands out about this flag is its resemblance to the Ottoman flag, where only the crescent has been removed.[3] | |
Flag of the Principality of Albania (1915) A 2012 auction in Genoa, Italy unveiled for the first time the flag of the principality, physically intact, displayed inside a square laminated wooden frame, with the descriptive title shown at the bottom in golden letters, embossed onto a black coated strip. The flag was found in Durrës on 20 December 1915 and had been taken from there by italian diplomat Baron Carlo Aliotti aboard the Austrian destroyer SMS Lika.[4] | |
Flag of the Autonomous Province of Korçë (1916–1920) The protocol agreement on the Autonomous Province of Korçë states in Article IX: Official surviving flags of this period are currently housed at the Flag Museum in Korçë.[6] | |
Flag used at the Congress of Lushnjë (1920) The flag used at the Congress of Lushnjë was identified for the first time on 25 November 2011 inside the archives of the Ethnographic Fund at the Center for Albanological Studies.
| |
Flag used by the High Regency Council (1920) Illustration of a large flag displayed hanging on the wall background inside the High Regency Council building with members Aqif Pasha Elbasani and Luigj Bumçi sitting opposite of each other.[9] | |
Flag of the Albanian Republic (1925–1928) State symbols during the period of the Republic were always shown in square form. This was preponderant with the national flag, state emblem, presidential insignia and even symbols used in commerce. The flag of the republic is seen for the first time in Teki Selenica's encyclopedic guide book Shqipria më 1927, e illustruar, page 124.[10] | |
Flag of the Albanian Kingdom (1928–1939) Article III of the Fundamental Statute of the Albanian Kingdom describes the flag as red with a black two-headed eagle in the center.[11] A variant of this flag is on display at the Mezuraj Museum. The square-shaped flag, currently in the possession of the Royal Family, was produced in the latter period of King Zog's reign and can be seen in an archived film footage being replaced by fascist officers during the unveiling ceremony of the new fascist flag, on 4 December 1939. The royal flag was widely used by government institutions, the army and embassies abroad.[12] | |
Flag of the Kingdom of Albania (1939–1943) The official journal of the Albanian government, in its 18th annual edition, dated 25 November 1939 , issue nr.116, page-3, writes:[13][14]
| |
Flag used during the German occupation of Albania (1943–1944) On September 8, 1943 the union with the Kingdom of Italy was officially dissolved and the country reverted to the decrees of September 1928.[15] Improvised vertical flags, which differed in shape and contortion, were used during this period, notably at the funeral procession of regent Fuad Dibra on February 23, 1944 and during the oath ceremony of government military formations.[16] | |
Flag of the Democratic Government of Albania (1946) The flag used by the Democratic Government of Albania, which was the first ruling government following the war of liberation, was published for the first time in the War Bulletin of National Liberation (Template:Lang-sq), issue nr.51 dated 28 November 1944. The usage of this specific flag is widely seen in public events and military court proceedings as well as in the opening session of the Constitutional Assembly on January 10, 1946. It has also been confirmed in the 1980 publication by the Marxist-Leninist Studies Institute titled "Epopeja e Luftës Antifashiste Nacionalçlirimtare e Popullit Shqiptar 1939–1944".[17] | |
Victorious Flag (1978) A hand holding the flag of the Party of Labor of Albania, in the stylized likenesses of Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin depicted in profile. The flag which was used at the 8th party congress, is described as follows:[18]

Historical flags
Flag | Description |

Flag of the Bajrak of Kashnjeti (1878) Ded Kol Bajraktari, the chieftain of the Bajrak of Kashnjeti (Dibrri) had unfurled this flag, on 10 June 1878, at the event known as the Albanian League of Prizren, swearing in the name of his bajrak, to preserve it with honor and glory. The flag with the inscription "Mirdita", is considered an object of great historical importance and a symbol of resistance for the people of the Mirdita region and areas of Northern Albania.
It is the only surviving flag of the twelve bajraks of Mirditë.[28] | |
Flag of the Sofi Tekke of Petrelë (1880) The flag of the Sofi Tekke of Petrelë with which the parish of Petrelë marched to Shkodër in 1880, in response to the League of Prizren calling for the defence of Plava and Gucija, was handed over to the Prefecture of Tirana on December 1938. In a correspondence with the Ministry of Internal Affairs dated January 19, 1939, the prefect of Tirana writes the following:[29]

Flag of Isa Boletini (1910) The flag of Isa Boletini was used for the first time at the Assembly of Isniq in 1910. It was later raised on top of a hill in Visekovc and on 12 August 1912, Boletini with thirty of his men, carried it through the streets of Skopje, which at the time was part of the Vilayet of Kosovo. The same flag was used in Vlorë, when Boletini and a cavalry of four hundred fighters entered the city on the day Albania declared its independence.
Awarded the Hero of the People title, Boletini was a prominent figure in the movement for an independent Albania. He is featured in a painting by Nikolet Vasia which inspired the famous scene in the 1982 film Nëntori i Dytë, where Boletini is seen kneeling down and kissing the Albanian flag while Ismail Qemali and other participants look on.[31] | |
Flag of the Malësori Uprising (1911) In the spring of 1911, teacher and poet Palok Traboini, then serving as personal secretary to Ded Gjo Luli, while journing through Dalmatia brought along with him three flags[32] and delivered them to Ded Gjo Luli of Hoti, Dok Ujka of Gruda and Prel Luca of Triepshi respectively. The flags had been fabricated in Vienna, Austria at the request of Aladro Kastriota and were a gift for the fighting insurgents of Malësia e Madhe. One of the flags was first unfurled at the Church of Traboini in Hot on 6 April 1911 by Kol Ded Gjoni, son of Ded Gjo Luli and later raised several times by his fighters on top of the Bratila peak.[33] Placed on the flag was a piece of cloth with the inscription "Flamuri i Liris" Mars 1911 ("The Flag of Freedom", March 1911), and on the carrying spear can be seen the figurine of an eagle with flapping wings. The flag appeared in the form of a labarum, in the style of Roman legions. The only remaining evidence of the flag is a photograph by Kel Marubi which is presently archived at the National Museum of Photography. | |
Flag of the Albanian Congress of Trieste (1913) On March 1, 1913, the Albanian National Assembly, known as the Albanian Congress of Trieste, convened in the city of Trieste, then Kingdom of Italy. It was attended by over 150 delegates from all provinces of Albania and representatives from the Albanian colonies. The flag used at the congress is found in a photograph attributed to Atelier A. Gerkic.[34] | |
Flag raised by Themistokli Gërmenji (1916) To offset the greek incursion in the south, an Albanian delegation led by Themistokli Gërmenji signed a protocol agreement with the french authorities who had been stationed in Albania at the time as part of their expansion on the eastern front. The agreement, which declared Korçë an autonomous administrative province under the direct supervision of the french garrison and general Henri Descoings, had as one of its key points the creation of an Albanian flag with a ribbon attached to it displaying the three colors of the french flag. Gërmenji raised a transient flag prepared for the ceremony on December 10, 1916 on the second floor balcony of the prefecture building. A negative by Kel Marubi that captured the moment is one of only two surviving images.[35] | |
Flag of the Committee for the National Defence of Kosovo (1918) The Committee for the "National Defence of Kosovo" was established in Shkodër on 1 May 1918. Its main goal was an independent Albania that was excluded from any kind of protectorate and the inclusion of Kosovo within its borders. The top symbol of the flag used by the committee, a pentas flower shaped star, can be seen in a 1916 photograph of a banner hanging at a children's school in Gjakovë which indicates that it was a commonly used symbol in this region.[36] | |
Flag used in Ismail Qemali's burial ceremony (1919) On the evening of February 10, 1919, the Italian warship "Alpino" brought to Skelë (Vlorë) the coffin with the lifeless body of Ismail Qemali. The flag used to cover the coffin had been a gift to Qemali by the Duke of Montpensier, when he visited Albania in March 1913 and was safely kept by Qemali's eldest son, Et’hem bey Vlora. The burial ceremony took place on Wednesday, February 12, 1919. The flag was later suspended outside the customs building of the municipality of Vlorë until it was submitted to the National Museum. A state archive document from Year 1936, Fund 195, File 62 describes the flag as follows:[37]

The records we have on it say that this flag was unfurled in Vlora, the day the city was liberated from the invading foreign army." This letter can be found at the Ministry of Education archive (A.SH. Fund 295. File 1. Year 1934.) and is written as follows:[38]

Medieval flags
Flag | Description |
---|---|
Flag of Mercurio Bua (1510) Illustration of a flag given in 1510 to Mercurio Bua (an Albanian stratioti captain from Morea active in Italy), by Emperor Maximillian I, found in a manuscript written by Ioannes Coroneos, a contemporary of Bua. It features a double-headed eagle, symbol of the Byzantium the Holy Roman Empire and of the Kastrioti, the Cross of Burgundy and the four "B"s or firesteels, used in the Paleologi arms but also linked to the House of Habsburg's Order of the Golden Fleece.[41] | |
[[File:Flag of Skanderbeg by Hieronymus Henninges (1598).svg|120px]] | Flag of Skanderbeg by Hieronymus Henninges (1598) A printed graphic illustration from the medieval period found in the major Latin work of German humanist-genealogist Hieronymus Henninges, published in Magdeburg in 1598 and titled "Theatrum Genealogicum ostentans omnens omnium aetatus familias…", shows the standing figure of Skanderbeg, with a sword in his belt and a flag on his right hand, depicting the image of the double-headed eagle, which in terms of its form, appears to be of the Middle European tradition.[42] |
Diaspora flags
Flag | Description |
---|---|
Flag of the Drita Society (1884) The flag's dimensions are 158 cm by 117 cm. Yellow fringes hang on the sides. In the center, painted in a golden yellow brush is the following text:
Decorations like the laurels, the crescent with the eight-pointed star and the one-headed eagle are also painted in golden yellow. Noticeable to the naked eye is that above the eight-pointed star is drawn with a carbon pencil an orthodox cross-shaped symbol, which is an overlap from a later period. The crescent was likely used as a symbol of the Ottoman Empire, of which Albania was still a part of. The Romanian letter "ș" is pronounced as "sh" in Albanian.[43] | |
Flag of the Dëshira Society (1904) The flag's dimensions are 110 cm by 100 cm. With holes on the left side where the stick pole is inserted, it has a field divided into two equal parts, one red and the other white (in concept) but actually having more of a cream or beige hue. The idea was perhaps borrowed from the design of the Bulgarian flag. In the center lays skillfully stitched a large black eagle, unlike today's official eagle found in the national flag. At the time, the design of the double-headed eagle did not have a unified standard which led to the creation of different variants. Under the eagle is written in gold, bright metallic thread the following:
On the sides hang yellow, heavy fringes, which, like the letters and the two upper tassels, are considered golden. The darkening that the letters have undergone over the years may indicate a metal of low quality. The flag stays taut in any hanging position and weighs 1.5 kg. The unveiling of the flag took place on August 28, 1904.[44] | |
Flag of the National Band "Vatra" (1918) Produced in 1918, the symbolic flag is of average dimensions, 101 by 66 cm. On the red background of the silk fabric is printed the following:
A real lace material made of yellow metallic yarn that mimics gold, surrounds the entire flag. The small, round temples sparkle in the lace mesh, giving it an appealing look. On the bottom, hang long, spiral fringes of metal thread. In between, a lyre that shines like gold is made of yellow foil, while the metal thread is in copper, the surface of which is enriched with zinc, giving the brass a golden appearance. For centuries, pure gold was no longer used in embroidery, not even in royal clothing. The flag dangled on a wooden rod, preceding the band's marches.[45] | |
Flag of the Djelmoshe Society (1919) The flag used by the society is 156 cm long and 90 cm wide. Two very high quality silk fabrics are sewn on top of each other. Small red and black tassels hang on the edges, four of which located in all corners are larger in size. In the center is painted with tempera, which has since cracked and splintered, a dark gray patterned eagle and below it the following text:
The eagle is different from that of the official flag since at the time there were no laws to define the shape of the national symbols. We notice that in this flag there is no place to insert a spear, nor a rope. Was it meant to be hung on a wall or perhaps used as a banner of manifestation?[46] |

Flag of Aladro Kastriota (1902) A document from the Ottoman archives of 1902, explains how Juan Pedro Aladro Kastriota, a Spanish citizen who claimed descent from Skanderbeg, a famous 15th century Albanian nobleman that rebelled against the Ottomans and became an obstacle to their early expansion — thus making him a pretender to the Albanian throne — distributed postcards throughout several European capitals, namely Paris, Rome, Athens and Saint Petersburg, featuring a photograph of himself next to a variant illustration of the Albanian flag.[47] In excerpts published by the French literary journal "L'Écho des Jeunes" from its 238th issue, dated 1 October 1903, a brief profile of Don Juan de Aladro Kastrioti is given which includes a speech he had made on 31 January 1902 and addressed to the Albanian people that mentions the following:[48]
The double-headed eagle in Aladro's flag is later seen in a publication of the nationally syndicated Minerva Magazine, Issue 004–005, Page 26, Year 1932. | |
Flag of Spiridon Ilo (1920) The flag model that is sometimes thought of as the most proximate in likeness to the one raised in Vlorë on Independence Day, is an illustration found in a 1920 postcard, produced by Spiridon Ilo. Titled "Flamuri Kombëtar", the flag has the following description:[49]

Trivial flags

Flag of the Albanian National-Balkanian Party (1929) Albanian researcher, scholar, orientalist and founding member of the Pan-European Committee in Albania, Osman Myderrizi, proposed the idea of a future national flag within the flag of a new Balkan Confederation. Inspired by political events which coincided with the pacifist movement in Europe at the time, the flag was particularly noted for its circle of stars symbol, present today in the official flag of the European Union. Both flags attached to the same pole were described in unison:[50]

Autochthonous Flag (2014) On October 14, 2014, at approximately 21:27 local time, the Serbia–Albania football match that was played for the qualifing round of the UEFA Euro 2016 tournament, was interrupted. At that moment, from the night sky of Belgrade, a waving flag hanging from a drone slowly approached the playing field. The flag in a black background, showed a map covered by a variation of the Albanian national flag, encompassing territories beyond Albania's present borders, alongside the portraits of Ismail Qemali and Isa Boletini with the inscription “AUTOCHTHONOUS”.[51] The map resembles to some degree Nikolla Lako's 1913 ethnographic map of Albania, obtained by the American Geographical Society in 1921. Similar maps validating the historical ethnographic reach of the Albanian speaking population had been comfirmed by prior authors such as Lejean (1861), Mirkovich (1867), Kiepert (1876), Sax (1877) and Markezinis (1905). | |
Flag of the self-proclaimed Republic of Chameria (2016) Author and poet Atdhe Geci, nominated by the so called all-inclusive assembly of Chams and Arvanites, declared Chameria a Republic on October 30, 2016. Festim Lato, the main organizer and financier of the event, was to serve in his capacity as Prime Minister. The flag design is modelled on the national flag and features a blue crowned coat of arms with a molossian hound in a jumping posture.[52] |
Minority flags
Albania currently recognizes two types of minorities, national ethnic minorities and cultural and linguistic minorities. Non-Albanian nationality is recognized as such by the Albanian state if it is registered in the civil status register. Reporting of minority statistics began with the 1960 census. In the last census of 2011, a total of 52,700 inhabitants were accounted from minority communities.[53]
