Description of the flag

The flag of the customs services is a tongued flag, with a white square on the intersection of the cross, with yellow letters 'Toll' surmounted by a crown.
Jan Oskar Engene, 26 March 1996


Customs ensign inscription is given in lower-case; i.e. "Toll" in Flaggenbuch. If I am not much mistaken, the regulation as well as the usage is not consistent and both "Toll" and "TOLL" are acceptable.
Željko Heimer, 8 July 2002


I think the uppercase versus lowercase difference is a historical one. Nowadays we only see the uppercase versions, both for the customs and postal flags. I am not sure exactly when the lettering changed to uppercase, but as the Flaggenbuch is a well researched source with generally reliable information, my hypothesis is that the post and customs flags went from lower to upper case sometime after the Second World War.
