About Flag Icons

Flag Icons is an open-source SVG icon set with 542 icons created by Panayiotis Lipiridis. Every icon is free to use under the MIT license — fine for personal projects, side projects, and most commercial work. Always check the upstream license for edge cases.

How to use Flag Icons icons

The fastest way is to embed an icon as an <img> from the Iconify CDN — no install, no build step, no JavaScript required.

Inline HTML

<img src="https://api.iconify.design/flag/fr-1x1.svg" width="24" height="24" alt="fr-1x1 icon" />

CSS background

.icon-fr-1x1 {
  background: url('https://api.iconify.design/flag/fr-1x1.svg') center / contain no-repeat;
  width: 24px;
  height: 24px;
}

React (with @iconify/react)

import { Icon } from '@iconify/react';

<Icon icon="flag:fr-1x1" width="24" />

Recolouring Flag Icons icons

Flag Icons ships with baked-in colours, so the icons keep their original palette wherever you embed them. Treat them like brand assets — use them as-is and avoid overriding the fill.

Search engine–safe usage

Always include a meaningful alt attribute on <img> tags or an aria-label on inline SVGs. For purely decorative icons (where text already conveys the meaning), use alt="" so screen readers skip them.

License & attribution

Flag Icons is distributed under the MIT license. Read the full terms at the official license page. Most permissive licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0, CC0) don’t require attribution in shipped binaries, but it’s considered good practice to credit the icon set in your project’s docs or about page.
