Description of the flag

Red background with a wavy bottom, just like in the city flag; shield of the arms in the upper hoist. Slightly soviet nostalgic in the flag design (even if Estonia and Latvia are as far as they could ever be), it is certainly so in the motives of the arms, depicting mining tools and tokens of “progress”. Though the law states 2:3, the image on the law page (www.magadan.ru/simbol.html) shows a slightly squeezed flag.
António Martins, 13 October 2002

The official documents about the flag and coat of arms of Magadan Region are Law of the Magadan Region from December 28, 2001 Nº 219-OZ (oblastnoĭ zakon | областной закон) About flag and coat of arms of the Magadan Region, which has come into force on December 29, 2001.
Michail Revnivtsev, 07 March 2002

The colours remain familiar to the inhabitant of Magadan as they remind of the subjects on the arms of the city of Magadan, except that the famous deer on red background has been replaced by the regional arms.
Pascal Gross, 30 January 2002, quoting from www.ber.magadan.ru/2001%20Dec%2028/28.htm

On the blue part — 3 fishes — symbols of the maritime fertility of the region. On the light blue part — a plane as symbol of the main means of transportation in the region, and the hydrostation — symbol of the principal source of energy of the region.
