The New Zealand flag has a dark blue background. It has the Union Jack in the upper left-hand quadrant and to the right are four red stars, outlined in white, each with five points. The stars are shaped like the Southern Cross, which is a star constellation visible from New Zealand.

Unlike Australia's flag, the NZ flag omits the smallest star from the Southern cross, and the stars are red with a white border rather than all white. There is also no Commonwealth star on the NZ flag.

What are issues relating to the New Zealand flag?

There are some New Zealanders that feel that the Union Jack on our flag is no longer appropriate as we don't have the same links with Britain that we used to. There has been some discussion about a new flag but little consensus about what it should look like. Another issue is the New Zealand flag looks too similar to the Australian flag, and can be easily confused from a distance or by someone not familiar with the differences.
