  The Dienstflagge, which is defaced with the middle coat of arms.
  The Staatsflagge, which is defaced with the flag version of the coat of arms and usually has twelve instead of eight stripes.
  The Dienstflagge der bremischen Schiffahrt, which is defaced with the flag version of the coat of arms in the centre and a blue anchor in a white canton. It is used on state buildings used for shipping and navigation, and as the jack on Bremen ships.
