Garden with a pole or bracket
You already have a pole or a bracket and you want the plain federal flag, black on top. The 1ABOVE 5x3 states 152 cm by 92 cm and claims both faces. It does not include a pole, and the review sample is mixed-country.
Germany flag comparison 2026
The best Germany flags, compared.
Top pick: YAAVAAW large German flag 5x3 ft Best value: SHATCHI Germany flag 5 ft x 3 ft – Score 68 at about £3.69, the cheapest plain 5x3 whose 152.4 cm by 91.4 cm line agrees with the title. Updated October 2026.
A Germany flag here is printed polyester in black, red and gold, for a UK garden, a pub wall, a desk or hand sticks. The federal flag is three equal stripes, black on top, then red, then gold, at 3:5. A 3 ft by 5 ft cloth is that shape. You judge a listing by the design, the stated size, whether both faces are printed, and whether the fixing suits a pole or a wall. Its attribute line reads 152 cm by 92 cm, and the page claims a double-sided print. No garden flag in the set includes a pole.

The best Germany flags in detail
Our view
The YAAVAAW large German flag is a plain 5 ft by 3 ft polyester at £5.39, listed at 80 g, with two brass eyelets and indoor-and-outdoor claims. The attribute table says 90 cm by 150 cm, so length and width are swapped against the title. The star line is the highest in the set, 4.8 from 484, and the written sample still names England, Scotland, France, and other countries. One review says the print is only single-sided, the reverse looks washed out, and the colour is less vibrant than expected. Feature lines do not claim a double-sided print. A buyer washed one flag and kept it. The 4.8 does not outweigh a size swap and a single-sided complaint if both faces will be seen.
Pros
- Highest star line in the set, 4.8 from 484
- Two brass eyelets on a plain design
- £5.39, close to other mid-shelf 5x3 flags
- One reviewer washed the flag and kept it
Cons
- The attribute line swaps 90 cm and 150 cm
- A review describes a single-sided, washed-out reverse
- The parent sample is mixed-country
- No pole, and both faces are not claimed in the feature lines
Best for: You like the star line and you will measure the cloth and check the reverse before a two-sided hang.
Less suitable: You are choosing on 4.8 alone, or you need a confirmed double-sided print and a size table that matches the title.

Common questions
Does it come with a flagpole?
No additional components are listed.

Not stated as a feature. One review in the sample complains of a single-sided print.

Specific uses are indoor and outdoor. The size attribute still swaps 90 cm and 150 cm.
Our view
The Woiltryn Germany flag is a plain 5 ft by 3 ft polyester at £5.29, with a double-sided print claim, double-stitched seams, and two brass eyelets. The attribute table prints 90 cm by 150 cm, so the numbers match the title only if you swap length and width. The listing line is 4.7 from 694 reviews. That sample names other countries as well as hanging and washing. One buyer praises a double-stitched header on a new pole and says the cloth needs an iron first. Another says the flag frayed and fell apart after about two months on a pole, and a third found holes on one edge only. There is no pole in the box. It is a fuller specification than the £3.69 plain SHATCHI if the swapped size line does not bother you, and a weaker one if you need the attribute table to read the same way as the title.
Pros
- Double-sided print and double-stitched seams are claimed
- Star line of 4.7 from 694, higher than the shared SHATCHI line
- Two brass eyelets for a halyard
- A review describes hanging it with string and washing it
Cons
- The attribute line swaps 90 cm and 150 cm
- Fray after about two months on a pole is in the sample
- Holes were reported on one edge only
- Parent reviews name other countries
Best for: You want a plain 5x3 with a both-sides claim and you will measure the cloth when it arrives.
Less suitable: You need the size table to match the title without a swap, or a flag for a full season outside.

Common questions
Does it come with a flagpole?
No. Components list a grommet, not a pole.
Is it printed on both sides?
The listing claims a double-sided print, with double-stitched seams. That remains a seller claim.
Can you use it outdoors?
The page says indoor and outdoor, with a waterproof claim. A review describes fray after about two months on a pole.
Our view
The Runesol Germany flag is sold as 3 ft by 5 ft, about 91 cm by 152 cm in the bullet, with four brass eyelets, one in each corner, at £5.99. The attribute width is 0.2 cm, which you cannot use. The star line is 4.6 from 9,944, and the UK sample names Remembrance, Fiji, Yorkshire, Spain, India, and Malta. Some reviewers call the cloth sturdy rather than thin, and one ironed creases with a damp cloth. Eyelets pulled out in the first high wind in one review, and another flag in the sample was printed on one side only. A bullet talks about white and red, which is not black, red, and gold. Four corners help on a wall. They are the wrong reason to ignore a broken size line and a colour sentence that does not match Germany.
Pros
- Four brass eyelets, one in each corner, which suits a wall
- Some reviewers describe the cloth as sturdy
- Indoor and outdoor use, with a machine-wash line
- Plain Germany colour attribute, separate from the crest rows
Cons
- The width attribute of 0.2 cm is unusable
- Eyelets pulled out in high wind in the sample
- A one-sided print appears in the parent reviews
- A bullet mentions white and red
Best for: You are fixing a plain flag flat to a wall and you will ignore the 0.2 cm width line.
Less suitable: You want a pole flag with two hoist eyelets, or you are buying because 9,944 looks like a Germany-only test.

Our view
The SHATCHI plain Germany flag is the lightest large cloth in this set, listed at 50 g, about 5 ft by 3 ft, with an attribute line of 152.4 cm by 91.4 cm and two eyelets. On 19 October 2026 it was £3.69. The star line is 4.6 from 2,392, and the same figure is shared with the crest and eagle SHATCHI rows. Parent reviews call a 5x3 of this family easy to hang and bright, and they also say the polyester is thin, frays in weather, and fades in sun. One reviewer wanted four corners rather than two, and another needed an iron before the flag looked right. The feature lines do not confirm print on both sides. It is the best value when you want the cheapest plain 5x3 whose centimetre lines agree, and you will take it down in a gale.
Pros
- Lowest plain 5x3 price in the set, at £3.69
- Size attribute agrees with the 5 ft by 3 ft title
- Two eyelets for a pole or a bracket
- Parent reviews describe the size as easy to hang outdoors
Cons
- Listed at 50 g, and parent reviews report fray, fade, and thin fabric
- Print on both faces is not confirmed in the feature lines
- The 2,392 count is shared across other national flags
Best for: You want a cheap plain garden flag for a match day or a short spell on a pole.
Less suitable: You need a confirmed double-sided print, four corner eyelets, or a flag that stays up through winter.

Common questions
Is this the plain black-red-gold flag?
The colour attribute is Germany, the plain flag in this SHATCHI trio, not the crest or the eagle.
Does it come with a flagpole?
No. The box is the flag with two eyelets.
Is it printed on both sides?
Not confirmed in the feature lines. A bullet asks the question and does not answer yes.
Our view
The SHATCHI Germany crest flag is a 5 ft by 3 ft garden flag at £3.73, with two brass eyelets and an attribute size of 152.4 cm by 91.4 cm. The colour attribute is Germany Crest, so this is not the plain tricolour. It shares the 4.6 from 2,392 line with the plain and eagle SHATCHI rows. Parent reviews talk about a light polyester that hangs easily and then frays, fades, and sometimes arrives with a torn edge. The feature lines do not say the crest is printed on both sides, and no pole is included. In England a flag with extra subject matter is not in the same no-consent class as a plain national flag. Buy it when you specifically want the crest picture, and check the reverse before you hang it where both faces show.
Pros
- Usual 5x3 size with two brass eyelets
- £3.73, close to the plain SHATCHI
- Attribute centimetres agree with the title
- Indoor and outdoor use is stated on the listing
Cons
- The crest is extra subject matter, not the plain federal flag
- The shared 2,392 reviews do not name this crest
- Both faces are not confirmed
- Parent reviews report fray and thin cloth
Best for: You want the crest on a cheap 5x3 and you have checked whether an emblem needs consent where you will fly it.
Less suitable: You want the plain black-red-gold flag, or a private flag without an emblem question.

Is it printed on both sides?
The feature lines do not state yes. Check the reverse before a two-sided hang.
Our view
The SHATCHI Germany eagle flag is the eagle print in the same 5 ft by 3 ft family, at £3.89 and 70 g, with two eyelets. The attribute table reads 91 cm by 152 cm, which is the title size turned round. Country of origin on this row is China, unlike the plain and crest SHATCHI rows that say United Kingdom. The 4.6 from 2,392 is the shared parent line, and those reviews describe thin polyester, fray, and sun fade rather than this eagle. German federal rules reserve the service flag with the eagle for federal bodies. That is German law, not a UK offence for buying the cloth, and the listing does not say so. Both faces are not confirmed, and there is no pole.
Pros
- 5x3 format with two eyelets at £3.89
- Indoor and outdoor use is stated
- Light cloth at 70 g if you only need it for a day
- The parent sample includes the same hanging praise as the other SHATCHI rows
Cons
- The eagle is the German service-flag picture, not the private federal flag
- The size attribute is swapped against a 150 cm by 90 cm reading
- Both faces are unconfirmed, and parent reviews report fray and thin cloth
- The origin line differs from the other two SHATCHI rows
Best for: You want the eagle picture and you know it is not the plain flag a private household is told to fly.
Less suitable: You want the federal tricolour, or a listing whose size table and origin line match the sister products.

Our view
The 1ABOVE Germany national flag is a plain 5x3 ft polyester cloth, about 152 cm by 92 cm in the attribute table, with two brass grommets and a double-sided print claim. At £4.99 on 19 October 2026 it sits in the middle of this shelf, with a listing line of 4.6 from 313 reviews. Those written reviews are a mixed-country parent sample, so the stars are not a Germany-only verdict. Reviewers who stay on size and cloth call the material thick-feeling and well made. One review says the lining thread came away repeatedly, and another says stitching started to come apart after two days. There is no pole in the box. It is the top pick when you want a plain garden flag whose centimetre line matches a 5x3 and whose page claims both faces, provided you check the seams when the parcel arrives.
Pros
- Attribute size of 152 cm by 92 cm agrees with a 5x3
- Double-sided printing is claimed, and the page lists machine wash
- Two brass grommets, and no pole to store
- £4.99, below the sewn outdoor flags UK makers list near £26
Cons
- Stitching and lining thread failed early in the parent sample
- The 313 reviews are not a Germany-only set
- No flagpole is included
Best for: You want a plain black-red-gold garden flag and a listing whose size line agrees with 5x3 ft.
Less suitable: You need four corner eyelets for a wall, or a sewn outdoor cloth you will leave up all winter.

Our view
This ZSYIULIA row is a plain garden flag at £5.99, about 5 ft by 3 ft, with the attribute size 150 cm by 90 cm in agreement, two metal eyelets, and a double-sided printing claim. It is 70 g polyester with a waterproof claim on the listing. The star line is 4.6 from 115. The UK review titles in the file name France, Portugal, and Dutch flags, and one order in the sample arrived as Costa Rica instead of a Dutch flag. None of the written reviews describe black, red, and gold. There is no pole. The specification is tidy on paper, and the review file does not confirm that this design is what the stars are describing.
Pros
- Size attribute agrees at 150 cm by 90 cm
- Double-sided printing is claimed
- Two metal eyelets and a double-thread sewing claim
- Generic reviews call the cloth big and strong
Cons
- £5.99 is the dearer of the two ZSYIULIA 5x3 rows
- Written reviews do not describe the Germany print
- Wrong-country deliveries appear in the sample
- No flagpole is included
Best for: You have compared the photos yourself and you want a 5x3 whose size lines already agree.
Less suitable: You are treating the 115-review line as proof of this black-red-gold cloth.

Our view
The Flagtex flag is the small one: 3 ft by 2 ft, 90 cm by 60 cm, 70 g, two brass eyelets on a reinforced strip, at £7.99. That is the highest price in the set for the smallest garden cloth. The title and attributes mix a crest and an eagle, so you should not assume one legal design. The star line is 4.5 from 389. Fifty UK reviews were read, and only a handful name Germany. Those mention a flag that was good for the price, or a little bigger than expected for a class project. Complaints in the wider sample include wonky stripes, a flag that needed restitching after four days, and material called a little flimsy. Cheap flags in the sample fray if left out, and a snapped pole elsewhere in that sample is not evidence that this box contains a pole.
Pros
- Two brass eyelets on a reinforced strip
- A 90 cm by 60 cm cloth if a 5x3 is too large for the bracket
- The few reviews that name a German flag call it as ordered
- Double sided is listed under special features
Cons
- £7.99 for a 3x2, dearer than every 5x3 in this set
- The title mixes crest and eagle
- Wonky colours and a restitch after four days appear in the sample
- Most of the 50-review read is other countries, including old reviews
Best for: You have measured a small bracket and you want a crest-style Germany flag rather than a 5x3.
Less suitable: You want the cheapest plain house flag, a single confirmed design, or a review count that is mostly this cloth.

Common questions
Is this the plain black-red-gold flag?
Crest and eagle both appear in the title and attributes. Do not assume one design.
Does it come with a flagpole?
No. Included components are none, and a bullet says no separate pole.

Special features list double sided. The cloth is 90 cm by 60 cm, not a 5x3.
Our view
The yayafunfun pack is ten mini Germany flags, titled at about 14 cm by 21 cm, each on a 30 cm plastic stick, for £3.99. The attribute table says 30 cm by 21 cm, which tracks the stick length more than the cloth. The star line is 4.5 from 174, and the sample also names Australia, Scotland, France, and Thailand. Two UK reviews say the pack contained ten sticks and only nine flags. The sticks are described as hollow plastic, like straws. One buyer reinforced them and reported three weeks in strong wind, which is a modified stick, not the stick as sold. A bullet still uses a country placeholder, so the template is not written for Germany alone. These are hand flags for a table or a crowd, not a house flag.
Pros
- Ten flags and sticks at £3.99
- Small enough for a pub table or a march
- One buyer used flags from this parent as table decoration
- Light enough to hand out, at a listed pack weight of 30 g
Cons
- Two reviews report nine flags with ten sticks
- The sticks are hollow plastic
- The title cloth size and the attribute size do not match
- A bullet still uses a country placeholder, and this is not a 5x3 garden flag
Best for: You need a handful of small flags to wave or to stand on a table for one event.
Less suitable: You need a full count of ten without checking the bag, or a flag for a house pole.

Common questions

It includes a 30 cm plastic stick per flag. That is not a garden flagpole.

It is sold for events and waving, not as a 5x3 garden flag. Two reviews report nine flags.

The title says about 14 cm by 21 cm. The attribute table says 30 cm by 21 cm, closer to the stick.
Our view
The ZSYIULIA 5x3 ft flag at £5.29 claims double-sided polyester and brass grommets, and the attribute size is 150 cm by 90 cm, which matches the title. The star line is 4.5 from 150. The UK sample names Spain, France, England, China, and the Czech Republic, so it is not a Germany-only file. One review praises material and colours. Another calls colours too pale, though that review describes darker red and blue rather than black, red, and gold. A flag in the sample arrived with only one eyelet, and the spec block does not number how many grommets you should get. There is no pole. It is a reasonable plain 5x3 if the grommet count on the cloth matches the way you need to hang it.
Pros
- Size attribute of 150 cm by 90 cm agrees with 5x3
- Double-sided print is claimed in the title
- £5.29, in the middle of the plain 5x3 band
- One review praises the size for photographs
Cons
- The eyelet count is not numbered, and one flag arrived with a single eyelet
- A pale-colour complaint is in the sample, on a review that describes other colours
- Parent texts name other countries
- No flagpole is included
Best for: You want a plain 5x3 with a both-sides claim and an attribute line that already reads 150 cm by 90 cm.
Less suitable: You need a counted pair of eyelets in the specification, or a review file that describes black, red, and gold.

Our view
The AZ FLAG Germany table flag is a 15 cm by 10 cm desk flag in 100D polyester, with a black plastic rod and base, at £6.75. The listing says indoor use, and the care line allows a 30°C wash and a delicate iron. The star line is 4.1 from 207, but only two UK reviews are in the saved listing, both short and positive. One calls it a normal everyday desk item, and the other says it looks good. There is no written complaint in that pair, which is too small a sample to treat as a durability test. Per square centimetre it costs more than a 5x3 garden flag because you are buying a finished stand, not a larger cloth. It will not read from the pavement.
Pros
- Finished desk set with cloth, a plastic rod, and a base
- Size is stated as 15 cm by 10 cm
- 100D polyester with a 30°C wash line
- Indoor use is explicit, so it is not sold as a garden flag
Cons
- Only two written UK reviews sit behind a 207-review star line
- £6.75 for a very small cloth
- Not for a garden pole or for outdoor use
- Failure modes are simply unreported in the written sample
Best for: You want a Germany flag on a desk, a classroom table, or a counter.
Less suitable: You need a garden flag, a hand flag for a crowd, or a large review sample of this exact cloth.

How we compared
Twelve amazon.co.uk Germany-flag listings were scored for this page. Stars, review counts and shelf prices are the listing lines from 19 October 2026. There was no laboratory fade, waterproof or outdoor-life test. A seller line that says waterproof or fade-resistant is not scored as a measured life outdoors. The four weights below sum to 100.
1
Listing fit
35%Agreed size, a stated eyelet count, and a format that matches the job: garden flag, desk flag or hand flags. A double-sided or care line scores only when the page states one. A crest or eagle loses fit against the plain federal flag. A swapped 90 cm and 150 cm line loses less than a 0.2 cm width.
2
Amazon evidence
30%Stars and review count on amazon.co.uk, then a deduction when the written sample is tiny or the texts describe other national flags. A shared parent total is not treated as a Germany-only score.
3
Review outcome
20%A repeated, specific complaint, or a use that matches the object, scores above a file that only repeats other countries. Fray, a single eyelet, a short pack and early stitching failure stay in the notes.
4
Value
15%Shelf price in GBP against a listing whose size lines agree. A low price does not score when the dimension line contradicts the title. A desk set is not judged as if it were a 5x3.

Germany flag buying guide
A Germany flag on amazon.co.uk is a printed cloth, not a tested outdoor fabric. Start with the picture, then the centimetres, then the eyelets. A plain 5x3 under £6 is the usual garden row. A crest or an eagle is a different design, and a desk flag or a stick pack is a different job. Prices below are the 19 October 2026 shelf lines.
What is a Germany flag?
A Germany flag in this comparison is printed polyester in black, red and gold. The federal flag is three equal horizontal stripes, black on top, red in the middle and gold at the bottom, in the ratio 3:5. A cloth sold as 3 ft by 5 ft, or about 90 cm by 150 cm, is that shape. Gold is the bottom stripe. The federal style guide’s gold is #FFCC00. You judge a listing by the design, the size, whether both faces are printed, and whether the fixings suit a pole or a wall.
Best for
- Garden households with a pole or a bracket
- Football and pub groups who need a wall flag or sticks
- Desks and classrooms that need a 15 cm flag
Not ideal for
- Anyone treating 2,392 or 9,944 as reviews of one Germany design
- Anyone who expects a pole inside a 5x3 box
Mistakes to avoid
- 1
Reading parent stars as this flag
The three SHATCHI rows share 4.6 from 2,392, and Runesol shows 4.6 from 9,944. The written samples name other countries. Use those figures as parent counts, not as a Germany-only test.
- 2
Buying the eagle because it looks official
The eagle is the German service-flag picture, reserved in Germany for federal bodies. Buying the cloth in the UK is not described here as a German offence. In England, extra subject matter is not the same no-consent case as a plain national flag.
- 3
Expecting a pole in a 5x3 box
No garden flag here includes a pole. The AZ FLAG includes a plastic desk base. The ten-pack includes 30 cm sticks, and two reviews report nine flags. A new garden pole can still need permission.
What to weigh up
Design
HighPlain black-red-gold is the federal flag: three equal stripes, black on top, red, then gold, at 3:5. A crest or an eagle is the service-flag picture. In Germany that eagle flag is reserved for federal bodies, and a fine of up to 1,000 euros is stated for unauthorised use of state emblems. That is German law, not a UK offence for buying the cloth.
Format and size
HighGarden rows are about 150 cm by 90 cm, the 5 ft by 3 ft cloth. Flagtex is 90 cm by 60 cm. The AZ FLAG desk flag is 15 cm by 10 cm. The ten-pack is about 14 cm by 21 cm on 30 cm sticks. If the attribute line swaps 90 and 150, as on the Woiltryn, the YAAVAAW and the SHATCHI eagle, keep the title and say the table disagrees. Runesol’s width attribute of 0.2 cm is unusable. The yayafunfun attribute of 30 cm by 21 cm tracks the stick more than the cloth. Two eyelets suit a halyard.
Which option suits you?
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
A match day or a pub wall
You want a cheap plain 5x3 for a short spell, not a flag left up all winter. The plain SHATCHI is about £3.69, listed at 50 g, with two eyelets. Parent reviews report thin cloth, fray and fade, and both faces are not confirmed.
A desk or a classroom
You need a flag that reads from the table, not from the pavement. The AZ FLAG is 15 cm by 10 cm with a plastic rod and base, listed for indoor use. Only two written UK reviews sit behind the 207-review star line.
Common questions about Germany flags
Which Germany flag is the top pick in 2026?
The top pick is the 1ABOVE Germany national flag at about £4.99. It scored 75. The attribute size is 152 cm by 92 cm, which agrees with a 5x3, and the listing claims a double-sided print and machine wash. The star line is 4.6 from 313 reviews. That sample is mixed-country, stitching failed early in some reviews, and there is no pole. This is a listing judgement, not a lab test.
How much does a Germany flag cost?
On 19 October 2026 the twelve amazon.co.uk prices ran from about £3.69 to about £7.99. Under £4 you find the three SHATCHI flags and the ten-pack of sticks. About £5 to £6 covers the plain 5x3 group, including the 1ABOVE at about £4.99. The dearest are the AZ FLAG desk set at about £6.75 and the Flagtex 3 ft by 2 ft at about £7.99. A printed 5x3 on this shelf sits under £6.
What should you check before you buy a Germany flag?
Check design first. Plain black-red-gold is the federal flag. A crest or eagle is extra picture. Then check size. Garden rows are about 150 cm by 90 cm. A swapped 90 and 150 line, or a 0.2 cm width, should not be trusted. Two eyelets suit a halyard. Four corners suit a wall. No 5x3 here includes a pole. Only some pages claim print on both faces. Treat shared star counts as parent totals.
Is the eagle flag the same as the federal flag?
No. The plain federal flag is three stripes, black, red and gold. The SHATCHI eagle at about £3.89, and the Flagtex title, mix in an eagle or a crest. German rules reserve the service flag with the eagle for federal bodies. That is German law, not a UK offence for buying the cloth. In England, extra subject matter is not the same no-consent case as a plain national flag.
Does a 5x3 Germany flag come with a pole?
No garden flag in this set includes a pole. The 1ABOVE, SHATCHI, Woiltryn, YAAVAAW, ZSYIULIA and Runesol boxes are cloth and eyelets or grommets. The AZ FLAG at about £6.75 includes a black plastic rod and base for a desk, and the listing says indoor use. The yayafunfun pack includes 30 cm plastic sticks, and two UK reviews report nine flags with ten sticks. A new garden pole can still need permission.
Can you treat the star count as reviews of this flag?
No. The three SHATCHI ASINs share 4.6 from 2,392, and the written sample names other national flags. Runesol is 4.6 from 9,944, and the UK sample names Remembrance, Fiji, Yorkshire, Spain, India and Malta. YAAVAAW’s 4.8 from 484 is the highest star line here, and that sample still names other countries. Use the figures as parent counts. They are not proof that reviewers were writing about this Germany design.
Is the old GDR flag in this comparison?
No. Black-white-red and the old GDR flag are not in this set. Every row here is sold as a Germany flag in black, red and gold, as a crest, as an eagle, as a desk flag or as hand sticks. If you want the historical GDR design, that is a separate comparison, the DDR flag page. Do not treat a marketplace print as an official or government-approved flag.
Our verdict
The 1ABOVE plain 5x3 scores 75 in this set: about £4.99, an attribute line of 152 cm by 92 cm, a double-sided claim and 4.6 from 313 reviews. That is the top pick. The written sample is mixed-country, and stitching came apart early in some reviews. The plain SHATCHI scores 68 at about £3.69. That is the best value: the lowest price for a plain 5x3 whose centimetre line agrees with the title, after the shared 2,392-review pool is already discounted. Both faces are not confirmed, and the cloth is listed at 50 g. None of this is a lab test.
