Emoji-Tag-Sequenz

Emoji Tag Sequences are a mechanism which allow a series of characters to describe or create a new format of emoji.

These tags are comprised of a Black Flag emoji followed by a series of Tag Characters. Tag Sequences are only currently used for subdivision flag support to support subregions or subdivisions specified under ISO 3166-2.

All ISO 3166-2 codes are valid sequences for the purpose of emoji flag display, should vendors wish to support any.

As of 2020, subdivision flags which are supported by major vendors are:

• 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England
• 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland
• 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Wales
• 🏴󠁵󠁳󠁴󠁸󠁿 Texas

These tag sequences are all RGI (recommended for general interchange) with the exception of the Texas flag emoji, which is only supported by WhatsApp.

For a list of all RGI emoji flags, see: Flags.
