[[File:Flag of Poland.svg|thumb|upright|Flag of the Republic of Poland]]

A variety of Polish flags are defined in current Polish national law, either through an act of parliament or a ministerial ordinance. Apart from the [[Flag of Poland|national flag]], these are mostly military flags, used by one or all branches of the [[Polish Armed Forces]], especially the [[Polish Navy]]. Other flags are flown by vessels of non-military uniformed services.

Most Polish flags feature white and red, the national colors of Poland. The national colors, officially adopted in 1831, are of [[Heraldry|heraldic]] origin and derive from the [[Tincture (heraldry)|tinctures]] of the [[Coat of arms of Poland|coats of arms of Poland]] and [[Coat of arms of Lithuania|Lithuania]]. Additionally, some flags incorporate the white eagle of the [[Polish coat of arms]], while other flags used by the Armed Forces incorporate [[military eagle]]s, which are variants.

Both variants of the national flag of Poland were officially adopted in 1919, shortly after Poland [[Second Polish Republic|re-emerged]] as an [[National Independence Day (Poland)|independent state]] in the aftermath of [[World War I]] in 1918. Many Polish flags were adopted within the following three years.<ref name=kromer>{{cite web

The designs of most of these flags have been modified only to adjust to the changes in the official rendering of the national coat of arms. Major modifications included a change in the stylization of the eagle from [[Neoclassicism|Neoclassicist]] to [[Baroque]] in 1927 and the removal of the crown from the eagle's head during the [[History of Poland (1945–1989)|Communist rule]] from 1944 to 1990 and replaced the traditional red colour by crimson red. Legal specification for the shades of the national colors has also changed with time. The shade of red was first legally specified as [[vermilion]] by a presidential decree of 13 December 1928.<ref name=znamier>{{cite book

== National flags ==
{{Main|Flag of Poland}}

The basic variant of the [[national flag]] is a plain white-and-red horizontal bicolor. A variant [[Defacement (flag)|defaced]] with the [[coat of arms]] is restricted to official use abroad and at sea. Legal restrictions notwithstanding, the two variants are often treated as interchangeable in practice.

Special state service flags are used by state-employed civil special-purpose ships while on duty. These flags all follow the same basic design; a white flag with a horizontal stripe whose width is 1/5 of the flag's width.
