Palau Independence Day: Palau Flag Meaning & Heritage

Celebrate Palau Independence Day

Palau celebrates Independence Day on October 1, marking the country’s independence in 1994. The day celebrates Palauan culture, community and Pacific identity.

The Palau flag

Palau’s flag features a golden moon set slightly off-center on a sky-blue field. The blue evokes the Pacific, while the moon has deep cultural significance in Palauan life and tradition.

Palauan identity across borders

Families may connect Palau with the United States, Japan, the Philippines or other Pacific communities. A 2in1 design can recognize both connections.
