The flag of Antilla (Antillan Patois: Baand-a Anteela) is the national flag and civil ensign of the Commonwealth of Antilla. It was formally adopted on 1 August 1963, when the Constitution of Antilla (which describes the designs of the national flag and coat of arms) was signed into law by the Parliament of Antilla. The flag of Antilla was designed in 1936 by the Antillan Revolutionary Front (ARF), which flew a defaced variant as its party flag prior to the flag's formal adoption. The flag of Antilla is properly displayed with the fly to the right and the hoist to the left; the reverse of the flag is a mirror image of the obverse, with both sides displaying the blue triangle at the hoist and the red triangle at the fly. Defaced variants, such as the naval ensign and presidential standard, are defaced solely on the obverse, with the reverse remaining unchanged.
