The town emblem was adopted on Aug 1st 2005 by Notice No 149 but there is no flag law. The white flag has a blue, a light blue and an orange three color town emblem in the center. The town emblem is stylized M and O of MinamiOsumi. The dynamic lines of the row of mountains and the waves symbolize a power of a development of the town. It represents an image of the southernmost town from which the culture expands and developes.
