Any flag flown upside down is a distress signal.
The flag used to indicate distress is the International Code Signal flag "N" (November), which is a square flag with a white and blue checkered pattern. Additionally, the widely recognized signal for distress is the International Distress Signal, which can be represented by a flag or by the use of other signals such as flares or sound signals. In maritime contexts, the "N" flag signifies that a vessel is in need of assistance.
