Flags

This page will provide you with information on how to order a United States flag flown over the U.S. Capitol.

Flags can be purchased in three sizes. All flags are sold at cost and take approximately 4 to 6 weeks for delivery, depending on the availability of inventory. We ask that you limit your flag order to two flags.

All flags flown over the Capitol are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Flags may be flown for a particular person, event, or organization, and may be flown on a specific date. If multiple flags are requested to be flown, they will all be flown on the same date and shipped at the same time. If you need flags flown on different dates, you must submit separate order requests for each separate date to fly the flags.

Here's an example of what a certificate accompanying the flag might say: "This flag was flown for John Smith in recognition of his retirement from teaching after 40 years of dedicated service."

As we do not accept credit card payments, we need all flag requests to be sent by mail with a check. Please print out this form and mail it in with a check to:

Care of the Flag

Most outdoor flags can be washed in mild detergent and thoroughly rinsed. Indoor and parade flags should be dry-cleaned. Damaged flags can be repaired and utilized as long as the overall dimensions are not noticeably altered. American Legion Posts and local governments often have facilities to dispose of unserviceable flags. Store your flag in a clean, well ventilated area.
