The Blue Ensign reflects the Turks and Caicos Islands' status as a British Overseas Territory. The coat of arms features a conch shell, lobster, and cactus on a shield, representing the islands' marine resources and arid landscape, with a pelican on the crest.
History
The Turks and Caicos Islands received a coat of arms in 1965, and the Blue Ensign bearing those arms was approved as the territory flag in 1968. The design highlights the islands' fishing industry and distinctive environment.
