A map of Germany, showing all the State flags.

The flags of the German states usually come in two variants: one variant (the simple striped flag) is for the use by everybody (civil flag); the other variant, showing the state arms is for government use only (state service flag). In addition to these flags, in some states there are specific flags for high-ranking officials, mainly used as car flags.

Frequently, the flags are used in vertical variants.
