The flag of Berazategui was selected in a contest organized in 2001 by the municipal administration for secondary schools. The proposals (one by school) were exhibited in the Berazategui Social Club for direct vote by the community.

The winning design was proposed by Patricia Chaparro, Virginia Guzmán and Vanesa Ledesma, from Secondary School No. 4.

The orange background, representing the municipality of Berazategui, is charged with a wavy national flag. The rising sun placed in the lower left part protects a white dove, a symbol of peace and liberty. The sun is bordered by a laurel wreath with 13 pairs of leaves, recalling the national coat of arms.
