Lieutenant Governor's Standard

The Jersey flag was adopted by Jersey on June 12, 1979, confirmed by Queen Elizabeth II on December 10, 1980, and first hoisted on April 1, 1981.

It has a white background on which a red Andrew's cross (the St. Patrick's Cross) and above it a crowned coat of arms of Jersey , which shows the three leopards of Normandy on a red background, is depicted. Before the flag used today became official, a flag with a St. Patrick's Cross without a coat of arms was in use.

A Blue Ensign with Jersey's coat of arms in the flight section has served as the naval service flag since 1907 . The British Red Ensign was used as the trade flag without a coat of arms until 2010 , now it bears a crowned coat of arms of Jersey in the flight section. The flag of the Lieutenant governor of Jersey consists of a Union flag with a crest in the center.
