Shield Argent with base wavy of Azure and Argent, two eradicated pines Vert, acc. to source fruited Or, connected by a ribbon Gules. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank)and white scroll with inscription in black capitals "PARCEIROS - LEIRIA".
Meaning:
"Parceiros" means "partners", thus the two connected trees are an allusion to the commune's name.
