No. It is a common mistake when constructing the Flag of Mexico to take the Mexican Coat of Arms and place it in center of the white stripe, using the Italian flag as the base design. This error occurs due to the fact that some people incorrectly believe the only difference between the two flags is the coat of arms in the Mexican national banner. Both flags use the same colors (green, white and red), but the Mexican flag has darker shades of green and red. Most importantly, these flags present a different aspect ratio (proportions), which gives each one a unique look. The Italian flag aspect ratio is 2:3 (1 to 1.5), more squarish in shape, while the Mexican flag aspect ratio is 4:7 (1 to 1.75), resulting in a longer shape.

What color is the italian flag and what color is the mexican flag?
The Mexican and Italian flags look almost exactly the same to the untrained eye: three vertical green, white and red bars. However, besides the Mexican coat of arms -- an eagle devouring a snake atop a cactus -- both have different proportions (2:3 for the Italian flag vs. 4:7 for the Mexican flag). Also, both have different color tones: Italian flag (RGB values): #009246, #F1F2F1, #CE2B37 Mexican flag (RGB values): #006847, #FFFFFF, #CE1126
What flag is similar to Italy's flag?
In 1916 the Mexican flag was same as the Italian flag, but had the Mexican coat of arms in the white part. In 1968 the aspect ration of this flag was changed to make it different than that of the Italian flag. the Italian flag aspect ratio is 2:3 (1 to 1.5), more squarish in shape, while the Mexican flag aspect ratio is 4:7 (1 to 1.75), resulting in a longer shape. The flags of Hungary and Iran have the same colour of the Italian flag, but the stripes are horizontal instead of vertical. The Hungarian flag as the green on top and the red at the bottom. The Iranian flag had the red at the top, the green at the bottom and the national emblem in the white part and the writing God is Great in Parsi written in white and 22 times along the fringes of both coloured stripes.
