Other flags The French tricolore is the official national flag used in Guadeloupe. In addition to the French flag, an inscribed regional logo on a white field is often used as regional flag, similar to the practice in Mayotte and Réunion. The logo of Guadeloupe shows a stylized Sun and bird on a green and light blue square with the subscript REGION GUADELOUPE underlined in yellow. A locally used unofficial flag, based on the coat of arms of Guadeloupe's capital Basse-Terre has a black or red field with a 30-rayed yellow sun and a green sugarcane, and a blue stripe with three yellow fleurs-de-lis on the top. The independentist People's Union for the Liberation of Guadeloupe has proposed a national flag very similar to that of Suriname.
