According to people involved in the design of the symbols of the Croatian Olympic Committee almost a decade ago, the logo of the COC that was initially adopted consisted of the five Olympic rings above the red squares in three rows 3, 2, 1. When this logo was submitted to the International Olympic Committee for approval, it was turned down, with the explanation that the Olympic rings should not be bigger thann one third of the logo of the national Olympic Committee.

The former symbols of HOO were prescribed in Pravilnik o zastavi i znaku Hrvatskog olimpijskog odbora (Rules on flag and symbol of COC).
Article 6 defines the flag of the COC: "The flag of the COC is prescribed in the COC Graphic Standards Manual. The flag background is white with the COC symbol set in the middle.

The symbol is the unique grapic presentation of the five Olympic rings, of six red and three white squares and of the writing "Hrvatski olimpijski odbor" on a white background bordered in the shape of a shield".
Article 15 determines that these Rules become valid with the day of their acceptance, that is 10 September 1993.
The three white squares are very often made transparent, so that the symbol under the rings consists only of six red squares.

HOO has a symbol and a flag approved by the the Executive Committee of the International Olympic Committee.
