About the Haiti flag emoji
🇭🇹 is the flag of Haiti: blue over red with the coat of arms on a white square in the centre. Like every country flag, the Haiti emoji is really two regional indicator letters, H and T, spelling the ISO code HT; side by side, HT merge into the Haiti flag. Windows has no flag artwork, so there HT appears as the letters H T. Haiti (HT) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); HT renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy HT from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Haiti with the other Caribbean flags, such as Bahamas, listed beside Haiti.

The Haitian flag emoji colours
The blue in the Haitian flag emoji is often said to represent the black citizens of Haiti, while the red stands for the mixed-race citizens. The white panel in the centre holds the country’s coat of arms: a palm tree, cannons and the national motto “L’Union Fait la Force”, meaning “union makes strength”. Haiti was the first independent black republic. The flag’s symbolism reflects that history, and the emoji is a common way to express pride in Haitian heritage in messages. You will often see it during Haitian Flag Day on 18 May, alongside congratulations or well wishes from friends and family.
