The current flag and emblem were adopted on October 6, 2021, by virtue of

fly end and it has the size of 1/2th of the width. At the top hoist, the
national flag is placed and it has a size of half of the width and half of the

There was a flag used before the 2017 one was adopted. It had a different seal and also was placed on a lighter blue background (similar to the national flag). It can be seen at https://old.gp.gov.ua/ua/news.html?_m=publications&_t=rec&id=185015&fp=4770
Sergiy Besh, a Ukraine-based vexillologist, messaged me privately saying he
found the document that approved this flag. This flag was approved on December
1, 2011, by Directive No. 114 issued by the office. The directive can be seen at
https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/v0114900-11#Text. The obverse of the
flag has its emblem placed in the center of the flag. The size of the emblem is
2/3rds of the width of the flag. The reverse of the flag has the text
"ГЕНЕРАЛЬНА ПРОКУРАТУРА УКРАЇНИ" in gold. This flag was made invalid after
Presidential Decree No. 392/2017 was issued on November 29, 2017. The obverse is
redone based on the specifications sent by Sergiy and attached is the reverse of
the flag.
