The National Flag of the Republic of Belarus, which is a symbol of state sovereignty of the Republic of Belarus, is a rectangular1 cloth2 consisting of two longitudinal3 stripes4: red upper stripe and green lower stripe that are two-thirds and one-third of the flag width5 respectively6. A vertical red-on-white Belarusian decorative pattern, which occupies one-ninth of the flag's length, is placed against the flagstaff7. The flag’s ratio8 of width to length is 1:2. The flag is fixed on a flagstaff painted golden (ochre9).
During ceremonies and other solemn10 events, the National Flag of the Republic of Belarus is used with a diamond-shaped11 top edge12 containing a five-point star. The star is analogous to the one depicted on the national Emblem of the Republic of Belarus. The top edges are made of yellow metal.
