The FILA is an international wrestling federation that holds events around
the world. It is the governing body of international amateur wrestling. The main
event of FILA is the FILA Wrestling World Championships. FILA is now based in
Corsier-sur-Vevey, outside of Lausanne, Switzerland. There are 174 national
wrestling federations, including Kosovo (FILA recognizes it as a full member).

The protocol manual for the London 2012 Olympics (Flags and Anthems Manual
London 2012 [loc12]) provides recommendations
for flag designs. Each international federation
and international paralympics federation was sent an image of the flag,
including the PMS shades, for their approval by LOCOG. Once this was obtained, LOCOG
produced a 60 x 90 cm version of the flag for further approval. So, while these
specs may not be the official version of each flag, they are certainly what the international
federation and international paralympics federation believed the flag to be.
For FILA: PMS 3005 blue, 871 gold. The vertical flag is simply the horizontal
version in 5:3.
