The flag of Policijski Sindikat Srbije [Police Union of Serbia] flag is dark blue with the union emblem, surmounted by ПОЛИЦИЈСКИ СИНДИКАТ СРБИЈЕ, and with ПСС under the emblem, all writings in gold letters.

Often only used in such circumstances deemed too dangerous and sensitive for other police units. Highly trained and equipped the PTJ is ideal for resolving hostage situations, fight against corruption, rescue, bomb disposal, prime security concerns (such as airport security) and many other situations where their skills are applicable.
