The coat of arms is described in Article 4 of the Decision:
The coat of arms of the Municipality of Tinjan has the shape of a stylized, triangular, heart-shaped shield with light blue field. In the bottom part of the shield, on a green base, there is a wall coloured silver (white), above its central part a three-floored tower is raising, also coloured silver (white). The roof crenellations of the tower point downwards. At each floor of the tower on the sides (symmetrically) there are two black windows, and at the second floor in the centre of the tower, there are black doors with a semicircular arch.
This is based on the historical coat of arms. There are no embattlements on the tower but consoles.
