The former flag of Vitez (photo), used from the first half of the 1990s until probably not much after 1998, is yellow with the central part of the coat of arms used at the time.
The coat of arms is "Gules a knight holding a sword raised over his head armoured argent riding a horse towards sinister of the same harnessed or within a border or containing a ribbon also or inscribed "Vitez" in the chief and another ribbon or inscribed '23. travanj' in the base". Vitez means "knight"; the inscription in the base, "23 April", St. George's Day, reveals the identity of the depicted knight.
