About the New Zealand flag emoji
The New Zealand flag emoji 🇳🇿 shows a blue field with the Union Jack and four red stars of the Southern Cross edged in white. Under the hood, NZ is the regional indicator symbols N Z; the New Zealand flag appears whenever N and Z are displayed together. Windows has no flag artwork, so there NZ appears as the letters N Z. New Zealand (NZ) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); NZ renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy NZ from the card; the flag emoji hub groups New Zealand with the other Oceania flags, such as Tonga, listed beside New Zealand.
