What the Panama flag emoji means
The Panama flag emoji is divided into four quarters: white with a blue star at top left, red at top right, blue at bottom left, and white with a red star at bottom right. People use it for football, the Panama Canal and Panamanian pride. Separation Day from Colombia is 3 November and Flag Day is 4 November, and 28 November marks independence from Spain in 1821. Travel posts about Panama City and the San Blas islands often carry it as well.
How to type the Panama flag emoji
On iPhone or Android, open the emoji keyboard and search for βPanamaβ or βflagβ. On a Mac, press Ctrl+Cmd+Space and type the same word. On Windows 10 and 11, press Win + . and search there, but Windows shows the letters PA instead of a flag, because Microsoft's emoji font has no country flags. The emoji is built from two regional indicator letters, P and A, which supported platforms combine into one flag. If you see the letters on another device, the app or font does not support flags.
