Using the Jamaican Flag


Don’t get caught defacing the flag – that means placing objects, letters or other artwork and design elements on the flag. Try and avoid designs that trim the flag in a way that can be seen as diminishing the dignity of the most recognisable symbol of Jamaican nationhood.
For official approval for use of the flag or any other national symbol in a design, enclose the proposed artwork in a letter that explains how the design will be used to:
Chief of State Protocol
The Chancery
Office of the Prime Minister
1 Devon Road, Kingston 10 
Plan your activities to accommodate a few weeks for review and discussion towards a favourable official response. 
The guide on using the physical flag can be downloaded from the OPM website at http://www.opm.gov.jm/NationalSymbols or directly from the Special Section of the JIS website  http://www.jis.gov.jm/special_sections/This%20Is%20Jamaica/  . The site also has information on the use of other national symbols.
