The Club´s flag was adopted on 6 March 1976 and consists of a red field (2:3) charged with a white triangle extending to the fly. Another blue triangle is laid on the white one. Its top extends to the half of the length of the flag. Author of the flag Zbyšek Svoboda designed also the emblem of the Vexillological Club by modification of the flag.

The Czech Vexillological Society which uses the name Vexilologický klub (Vexillological Club) was initialized in 1971. The first dialogues on its legal existence were conducted with the House of Culture for the 3rd district of Prague in spring and the preparatory committee met for the first time on 20 November 1971.
