The municipality of Slivno (1,999 inhabitants in 2011) is located some 50 km north of Dubrovnik, to the south of the delta of river Neretva and to the north of the Bosnia and Herzegovina corridor towards the sea at Neum. The seat of the municipal administration is the village of Vlaka (302 inh. in 2001) just at the southern edge of the Neretva delta. There are 17 other villages and small towns in the municipality, the southernmost being Klek (159 inh.), just on the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Flag of Slivno

The symbols of Slivno are described in the Municipality Statutes Statut Općine Slivno, adopted on 21 July 2009 by the Municipality Assembly and published on 27 July 2009 in the local official gazette Neretvanski glasnik - Službeno glasilo Grada Metkovića, Grada Opuzena i općina Slivno, Zažablje, Kula Norinska, Pojezerje, No. 4.

The flag of Slivno was, most probably, first presented to the public on 15 August 2008 (Ascension Day) during a ceremonial session of the Municipality Assembly (photo).

The flag is described in Article 6 of the Statutes as in proportions 1:2, blue with the coat of arms, bordered white, in the middle. The width of the coat of arms is 1/3 of the flag's width.

The coat of arms of Slivno municipality is in the form of a Romanesque shield. It is divided crosswise into four equal fields. The top two and bottom two fields are colored alternately: the top left field is white and the right field is red, while the bottom left field is red and the right field is white. A smaller shield is placed in the heart of the coat of arms, and in the upper white field is the figure of a falcon with spread wings. He is divided horizontally into two parts: The stylization of his character is taken from the coat of arms of the Nonković family. The lower field of the smaller shield is divided by three wavy lines into four fields: two blue and two gold. Viewed from the center of the shield towards its bottom, the color scheme is: blue, gold, blue, gold.

The graphic elements in the flag are arranged so that they read sr in a vertical sequence - from the spear line to the bottom edge. The ratio of the rope to the long side of the flag is 1:2. The length of the flag is divided into two equal fields. The upper half is divided into four equal fields like the shield of the municipal coat of arms, with alternately colored red and white fields. The lower half of the flag is blue with two wide parallel wavy bands of gold. In the center of the flag, at the top of the upper blue wave, there is a spread figure of a falcon identical to the one in the small shield of the municipal coat of arms. The lower blue field bears the inscription SLIVNO embroidered in golden capital letters. The entire flag (except for the edge next to the spear) is trimmed with gold with two golden tassels on the lower corners and one in the middle.
