DesignThe red bottom and the white stripe with the coat of arms on the center of the white field.

The red bottom is 1/3 of the total height and the white stripe is 2/3 of the total height. In the center of the white field is the coat of arms, a blue shield displaying 3 fish arranged in a "Y" Shape with a golden crown as its helm. The coat of arms is surrounded by branches of golden oak and laurel bound together with golden ribbon.[3] The older flag of Saratov Oblast was practically the same as the current flag, apart from a redesign of the oak laurel, which reduced the amount of shading.
