About the Caribbean Netherlands flag emoji
🇧🇶 stands for Caribbean Netherlands in the emoji set; because Caribbean Netherlands flies its parent country’s flag, that flag is what BQ shows on most devices. The Caribbean Netherlands flag is built from the regional indicator letters B and Q, the two-letter code BQ, which fonts join into the single Caribbean Netherlands flag. Windows has no flag artwork, so there BQ appears as the letters B Q. Caribbean Netherlands (BQ) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); BQ renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy BQ from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Caribbean Netherlands with the other Caribbean flags, such as Curaçao, listed beside Caribbean Netherlands.
