The Flag
The flag of the Australian Federal Police was first adopted in 1981 and is flown on buildings housing elements of the Australian Federal Police.
The flag is predominantly black (hoist and fly) with its centre third a white vertical panel on which is placed the badge of the Australian Federal Police. The badge is based on the Commonwealth Star, the Crown and the Commonwealth Coat of Arms. The flag has, on all four edges, a narrow black and white chequer (Sillitoe’s Tartan) commonly used to represent police services around the world.
