About the Tristan da Cunha flag emoji
Flag of Tristan da Cunha, a Blue Ensign with the island’s coat of arms, a shield with albatrosses and lobsters. The emoji is 🇹🇦. The characters behind the Tristan da Cunha flag are the regional indicators for T and A, spelling TA; two such letters in a row always render as one flag: Tristan da Cunha’s. Windows has no flag artwork, so there TA appears as the letters T A. Tristan da Cunha (TA) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); TA renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy TA from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Tristan da Cunha with the other Africa flags, such as Botswana, listed beside Tristan da Cunha.
