La Bandera Nacional se compone de los colores azul ultramar y rojo bermellón, en cuarteles alternados, colocados de tal modo que el azul quede hacia la parte superior del asta, separados por una cruz blanca del ancho de la mitad de la altura de un cuartel y que lleve en el centro el Escudo Nacional. La bandera mercante es la misma que la nacional sin escudo.

El Escudo Nacional tiene los mismos colores de la Bandera Nacional dispuestos en igual forma. Lleva en el centro la Biblia abierta en el Evangelio de San Juan, capítulo 8, versículo 32, y encima una cruz, los cuales surgen de un trofeo integrado por dos lanzas y cuatro banderas nacionales sin escudo, dispuestas a ambos lados; lleva un ramo de laurel del lado izquierdo y uno de palma al lado derecho. Está coronado por una cinta azul ultramar en la cual se lee el lema “Dios, Patria y Libertad”. En la base hay otra cinta de color rojo bermellón cuyos extremos se orientan hacia arriba con las palabras “República Dominicana”. La forma del Escudo Nacional es de un cuadrilongo, con los ángulos superiores salientes y los inferiores redondeados, el centro de cuya base termina en punta, y está dispuesto en forma tal que resulte un cuadrado perfecto al trazar una línea horizontal que una las dos verticales del cuadrilongo desde donde comienzan los ángulos inferiores.

## Translation

The National Flag consists of the colors ultramarine blue and vermellion red, in alternating quarters, arranged so that blue is in the upper part of the hoist, separated with a white cross, its width the same as half the height of each quarter, bearing in the middle the National Arms. The mechant flag is the same as the national one, but without the arms.

The National Arms have the same colors as the National Flag arranged in the same manner. It has in the center a Bible open at the Gospel of Saint John, Chapter 8, Verse 32, and above it a cross, issuing from a trophy of two spears and four national flags without arms, to both sides; there is a laurel branch on the left side and one of palm on the right. It is surmounted by an ultramarine ribbon, in which is written the motto “Dios, Patria y Libertad”. In its base another, vermilion ribbon with its ends turned up with the words “República Dominicana”. The shape of the shield is rectangular, with its upper corners protruding and lower rectangular, the center of its base ends with a point, and positioned in such a way, that drawing a horizontal line joining two vertical lines of the rectangle from where the lower angles begin results in a perfect square.

## Additional information

Хотя герб Новой Зеландии был описан в королевском пожаловании, к средине 1940-х годов использовались не менее 20 версий. Был основан комитет по перерисовке и стандартизации герба и в 1956 году королева одобрила измененную версию.

Основные изменения:

* добавление короны Святого Эдуарда, которая символизирует то, что королева является монархом Новой Зеландии
* перерисовка четвертей щита
* обращение щитодержателей к щиту вместо обращения к зрителю, вожак маори вместо хей тики приобрел капеу (сережку из зеленого камня)
* замена свитка двумя пальмовыми листьями
* замена «Onward» на «Новая Зеландия», чтобы придать гербу более новозеландское ощущение.

Герб продолжает использоваться в таком виде.
